Auto / Scheduled shutdown

Hi, so I have a Intel nuc that is used for more than 1 thing...

By default it boots into an Ubuntu install that's for Usenet etc..

I use LibreElec on same nuc under a different partition...

It auto powers on every day via a rtc wake alarm in the morning (thus ready for Usenet at any time)

If I use LibreElec I don't wanna mess around with custom shutdown every time, is it possible to either via add-on or running a script have LibreElec auto shutdown daily at a set time?
(in case I forget.. As it needs to be in a off state for the rtc Alarm to wake it...[WHITE SMILING FACE])

Thanks.

Using python

/storage/.kodi/userdata/autoexec.py

Code

#!/usr/bin/env python


import time
import subprocess


HOUR   = 13
MINUTE = 46


while True:
  currentTime = time.localtime(time.time())
  if int('%d%d' % (currentTime[3], currentTime[4])) == int('%d%d' % (HOUR, MINUTE)):
    subprocess.call('poweroff', shell=True)
  time.sleep(10)

note that hour and minute aren't padded and are in 24 hour time
so if you want 1am you would have
HOUR = 1
MINUTE = 0

or if you want 4:30PM you would have
HOUR = 16
MINUTE = 30

might have to set exec bit also

Code

chmod +x /storage/.kodi/userdata/autoexec.py

Ok..i just tried it and works nicely. I read before that if poweroff during streaming etc that its important to do a proper shutdown as to not corrupt anything?..
Is this good enough as a 'clean shutdown'?

Cheers.
