However, it might be worth thinking about giving plugins the ability to set a different wakeup time, so that a scheduled EPG scan plugin can be written.
I also think that this would be very helpful for some plugins. Manual start detection could also include a call to the plugins. A plugin that did "schedule" an EPG-scan or similar could tell VDR during start up, that VDR woke up because of this scheduled event set by this plugin. At the moment I use a relatively complex patch that does some "maintainance" task during the night. If it would be possible to modify the wakeup-time in a plugin I could re-implement the complete patch as a plugin.
I think a much easier solution (implementable in runvdr/vdr-initscript) is: Write down wakeup-time when shutting down and comparing that to time when system/vdr starts (with some margin).
