I still cannot follow your reasoning as the user can already disable the 
automatic shutdown feature. Do you want to remove this option 
completely, rename it or change its' behaviour? The shutdown could be 
changed to a standby/powersave mode: the stream decoding will be 
turned off instead of poweroff.

VDR's MANUAL: "Setting MinUserInactivity to 0 disables the automatic 
shutdown, while still retaining the possibility to manually shutdown the 
computer."
