Can't you set a cronjob for working as an alarm?

I use Linux a lot for playing music, videos and making file conversions, but if
you limit yourself to a RPi board you are going to be a bit tight on computing
power. Their IO is not exactly great. At the hour of truth I just use a regular
computer with a regular distribution and regular multimedia players.

I just pulled one of this year's Linux Magazine and found some instructions for
getting Kodi running with some popular multimedia providers, but you say it
does not work for you, hmmm...
