OK, so whats the easiest way to do this, im using xbmc and nextpvr, and simply want the pc to shut down when the scheduled recording finishes?
Thank you

I do that with mythtv... PC wakes for recordings, stays awake while recording/serving up media and suspends after being idle for an hour.

Linux only. Messy in what way? It can be a pain to setup as its convoluted, but in saying that after setting it up its been rock solid for me.

I use NextPVR backend and simply tell Windows to sleep after 5 minutes which works really well for epg updates, recordings etc. I also use WOL to wake it on demand which takes about 7-10 seconds using a cheapo SSD.
