Kodi: Nightly Reboot

I want to free up the tv tuners when not in use, one way is to reboot every night.

Open a terminal window and login into Kodi

Check if cron is installed:

$ which cron

/usr/bin/cron

If not installed, then install cron

$ sudo apt-get install cron

Then edit the crontab

$ sudo crontab -e

and add

# restart everyday at 2am

0 2 * * * sudo reboot

CTRL-o, ENTER, CTRL-x to save and exit the editor

and then restart the service

$ sudo service cron restart
