Auto execute mythfilldatabase

I see there is a way to schdule mythfilldatabase in Mythtv, but the
system will not autostart at this time. Is there a way to get Mythtv to
schedule a wakeup at 3am to get the schedule and then power off?

Thanks Dan

Again, why?
Just put the fill database in a cron job and leave
myth out of the picture.

But again, I ask Why shutdown the back end?

I would like that the system not need to be powerd on all day and night
and I would like it to be up to date even if I am not recording
something every day.
