That could have been useful alternative to the CEC Remote, shame they stopped making the Harmony. I have not given up completely on the CEC Remote, there is an option to trigger putting the TV and...
I believe that setting is only available on a laptop, it certainly is not shown on either of my Win 11 PCs.
I am however making progress, for the HTPC I had Sleep set to 45 mins, and since the...
Hmm, seems the problem is more general, with MP not running the PC still does not sleep on inactive timeout. This despite being able to put it to sleep with the standby button on my remote both...
Here are the details of what happened:
HTPC was set to reboot at 05:00 hours.
HTPC was set to wake at 06:00 hours to grab the EPG (it stays awake for around 40 minutes then hibernates).
When I...
Mmm, I cannot actually remember what state the HPTC was in after the weekly reboot. I will enable it for early Wednesday morning and see what happens. Some possible differences:
(1) I have...
Many thanks, that is encouraging and hopefully my problem can be resolved with setting changes. I am using sleep rather than hibernation and MP is set to restart on boot but only to the Home...
I set up a weekly reboot in the Power Scheduler and it has been now been actioned twice, both times it woke the PC up from standby (I had ticked that option) did the reboot and restarted MP but 4...
I remember the massave effort, back in 2016 I believe, required to get Madvr to work with MP1. It may be that MPC-VR can easily ride on the back of the Madvr implementation but I doubt it, I...
According to the info MPC-VR can be fully implemented with MPC-BE which can be set up as the default, video and other categories, player see atached screen shot. I use MPC-BE for some things but I...
Just a quick update from me:- Since doing the various updates and TLC my HTPC has been behaving itself really well, no issues with the stop button or delayed EPG, also a problem I have had for...
Since doing the updates and switching to Madvr for TV everything has been working very very well, seems the TLC was worth it.
I have now gone back to EVR for TV to avoid the long delay before...
Hmm, my HTPC is a single seat set up and the C: disk is an SSD. I have not noticed any significant difference in the delay getting the EPG or recorded program list after a system restart and...
I do indeed use Madvr as my renderer altough not for TV, at some point in the past I selected the "Use EVR for TV" option but I can't remember why! I have not encountered any loss of control...
