Sure,

Transcoding takes a long time and usually will be activated to start over night.
However, it would be nice if the transcoder tells the system hey, I'm finished, I've done my job here, and if there are no other processes running (like recordings) I shut down the system, put it in standby or bring it to sleep. (A 3 choice setting) Mostly it will be safer to go to sleep as there might have been recordings scheduled for a little later. But at least it would power down everything or almost everything for some time. (Time to cool down the system)

I hope I make more sense in this.

Oh btw, great job, I like the plug-in a lot (still little corks but I'm sure you will fix that) One that pops up to mind right now is that it seems not able to save the file to a different directory or hard drive (despite settings done). I usually I try to have the source file on one hard drive and save the output file to the other. This speeds up the process a bit, and doesn't wear out the hard drives as quick from all the back and forth flipping between reading and writing.
