[QUOTE="petsa, post: 483790, member: 29962"] Hi again, The issue turned out to be a little more generic than I first thought... Since I have all movies on a remote disc the problem got a little more complicated. Apparantly an image mounted with Daemon Tools and residing on another PC causes the system to not become as idle as it would have to for standby. I guess this could be network traffic etc causing it to never settle for standby. As soon as I unmount the image MST reports the system is ready for standby. So if I stop a movie (from a mounted image, mounted with Daemon Tools) the image will still be mounted so the HTPC won't go into standby. The only workaround as I can see would be to unmount on "Stop". I can tell Daemon Tools to not remount on resume but hfirst I need to make sure the system can standby :) If the movie is a regular AUDIO_TS/VIDEO_TS type it will work OK. Any ideas how to fix this? /Peter EDIT: I found a way, tried it, and it works :D. Here is what I did: 1. Since I already use IR Server Suite I created a macro that first sends "STOP" and then the command "daemon.exe -umount 0" 2. I remapped the "STOP" button on my MCE remote to this macro instead of the "STOP" command it used to be. IT WORKS! [/QUOTE]
