#187 Non-idle Sleep Timer

[Jim Daniels]

As requested by Po0-B0o, an xbmp sleep timer. The
timer will shutdown the xbox no matter what it's
currently doing.

As it stands I just bound the timer function to the white
button and as such it only works where white isn't
already used. I'm sure this'll be changed to a more
appropriate key.

The timer cycles between OFF, 30, 60, 120 minute
intervals with each press.

e-mail ain't working so post follow up with
comments/suggestions if you want, or catch me in
#xbplayer..

Could you please make this more integrated with xbmp?
like:
- allow setting timer from OSD
- allow setting timer from general settings UI
- remember timer settings( store it in g_playersettings)

can do.. how do you see it working? at the moment it resets
the timer before shutdown as otherwise on next power up
xbmp will shutdown after previous setting time has passed..

this doesn't seem right as you wouldn't want it to shutdown
every time you use it after X minutes?

do you see it as a setting in OSD/gui to be set once (say to
30 mins) then enabled/disabled in a different way?

Newer version of the timer with the white button usage
removed. Timer can now be set from the general settings
menu.

Note that tuple 217 is new in lang-1.xml, don't know how the
locales are maintained..

Will post a follow up to add to OSD if it's deemed necessary.
Persistent settings aren't there as explained in my last
followup.

NB these changes are made against CVS of 02 Mar 03

@nroc; maybe you can test if this still work with the latest
CVS and the new XDK, if so then intergrate in into the CVS :)

Maybe could add to the OSD if simple as well, or do later :)
