This Addon prevents a system from shutdown if a important task is alive and shutdown it later. But if is user activity detected the service will finished because a user is active (listening music, watching a movie etc.). If you decide you want to go to bed, press power. The system will not shut down until a recording etc. is running...

If your PC wakes up and there isn't any user activity (you're absent) the service will run all the time, check all relevant tasks, set next wakeup and shutdown after all tasks have finished. Thats full automatic mode
