Since SABnzbd already has the ability on cue finish to shutdown sabnzbd/shutdown pc/standby pc/hibernate pc
could we get the ability to activate all of those from the scheduling list?
I want to set a download for late night (off peak) and I can easily start/stop the download, but after its stopped there is no point to the PC remaining on, so want to hibernate it. Yes it could be done externally but then its two programs to juggle, and afaics the functionality is there, just not on _that_ option.
Yes i have seen ticket #101 and it would be nice to see these features on the list!
Thanks!

Re: Schedule computer shutdown/hibernate
so what do you want? The machine to come out of hibernate at a specific time, perform its download and then hibernate again? Is this on windows or linux?

Re: Schedule computer shutdown/hibernate
Just to have the machine hibernate/shutdown/standby by the scheduling just like it already can from on cue finish (because the cue may not have finished at the scheduled stop-downloading time but I still want it to power down as if it had)
Getting it to wake up i would believe would be beyond the control of sabnzbd -although i know my bios can be set to boot at time
I know I _could_ set a schedule in the windows interface to hibernate, but then I'd be juggling two interfaces and run into issues when i wasnt using sabnzbd and in fact didnt want it to shutdown and forgot to remove the windows-schedule...
Windows XP/Sabnzbd 0.5.0
More background: Where i am we have crappy strictly quota'd (and expensive) internet and peak and off peak times. So I cant let a download (or a cue) crunch through all the peak time usage and effectively have no decent connection for the day and work Scheduling allows me to set speed and time for the night so i can predict how much download will occur... Just trying to do my bit for the environment (and hip pocket) by turning off things that dont need to be left on!
