Full Version: Automatically reboot shortly after waking?
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Shortly after I wake my system (3 seconds?), I'd like for it to automatically reboot.

Would something like this be possible?


I'm using OpenElec. I'm not sure if this is a platform-specific question, so this thread can be moved if necessary.
Why not just shut it down and boot it up, then, instead of sleeping/waking?
Yes, from a ssh terminal type

Code:
mkdir -p /storage/.xbmc/addons/_pm-suspend/sleep.d/ && nano /storage/.xbmc/addons/_pm-suspend/sleep.d/reboot.power && chmod +x /storage/.xbmc/addons/_pm-suspend/sleep.d/reboot.power

Paste in:

Code:
[ "$1" = "resume" ] && sleep 3 && reboot

then

Code:
chmod +x /storage/.xbmc/addons/_pm-suspend/sleep.d/reboot.power

I might be doing something wrong, but I've tried a few things and I don't believe I'm able to power on with my remote from a completely shut-down state.

I really didn't think this would be possible, but you posted a solution! Thank you!!! I'll try this out asap.

Do you really want to reboot, or simply restart xbmc? If the latter, instead use:

Code:
xbmc-send --action="XBMC.RestartApp"

That's what I use (to get around the issue with Windows shares becoming unusable after resuming). It's normally restarted and at the home window by the time my TV is awake.

With OpenElec, the time between boot and the XBMC loading screen is very minimal, and even shorter since I'm using an SSD.

However, I'll try it both ways and see which provides better results. Thank you!!
cool thx that wok very well with me

just i have 2 questin if you dont mind

if i want to change the time from 3 seconds to 1 second just i have change the number from 3 to 1

cool i try this code saves time
the reboot code take 30 seconds to launch the device
with the restart code take 14 seconds so thank you, you saved 16 seconds from my life Big Grin

some time with regular suspend and wake up i lose the sound audio when play movies i think this issue a lot of people have it
i have to reboot the device to fix that i hope the restart app resolve this problem do you think restart the app only enough to fix the sound issue

thx
Yes the number after sleep is how many seconds you want to sleep for. To remove the sleep remove '&& sleep 3'. To delete the resume hook 'rm /storage/.xbmc/addons/_pm-suspend/sleep.d/reboot.power'
