I might be a noob, asking this, but what the hack..

I wanna shutdown the computor with xbmc, restart is fine, but shutdown just kills the xbmc. Are there a way to make it "optional" to shutdown the pc? (From remote control..)

yes,

see closing XBMC in settings SYSTEM, then XBMC closes and shutsdown pc or hibernates or standsby

I use a iMedion ir sensor and have just mapped the power switch on my remote to shutdown the computer. I don't even quit XBMC first, just shutdown so Windows handles ending processes and then shuts down.

In beta1 we have made it possible to choose the way of shuting down:
XBMC.Quit() - Just quits XBMC
XBMC.Powerdown() - PowerDown System
XBMC.Suspend()
XBMC.Hibernate()

XBMC.Shutdown() is still there and is used as the default way to shutdown XBMC, which is setable in settings. Could be any of the above.
