[QUOTE="usualsuspect, post: 532484, member: 91679"] you are getting it wrong. away mode is not for saving energy. it's for comfort. (the energy part is just a little bit on top, because of the monitor savings) as goersch said: "Away Mode can not be compared with S3/S4 - it is in between a running System and S3/S4. " in fact, the pc is FULLY activated (just without video and audio), when away mode is activated, but only WHEN the pc is needed for any kind of background task (recording, streaming, ...) as soon, as this background task is no longer necessary, the pc will go to standby/hibernate/off. please read this post from ssjunior ([URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/newcomers-forum-240/mediaportal-can-shut-down-while-recording-69399/#post532091"]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/newcomers-forum-240/mediaportal-can-shut-down-while-recording-69399/#post532091[/URL]), as it explaines away mode's real world behaviour, as it is given by windows media center...
