[QUOTE="mmf, post: 702230, member: 55662"] Hi everyone, I am currently storing my movies on a local harddisk and one remote target (Windows Home Server). If I want to play the movies on the remote target, I have to start it up manually at the moment. Isn't it possible to automatically wake on LAN the server e.g. if MovingPictures accesses the remote target to play 1) show a dialogue if MovingPictures should start the remote server 2) starts the server (WOL-packet to server) 3) in a perfect world: also force the server to standby afterwards :D Maybe someone could come up with a solution, I think this would be not only helpful to me! Btw: Saw this solution [url]http://code.google.com/p/wol-powermanager/[/url] maybe this could be helpful! Thanks :thx: Best regards MMF [/QUOTE]
