When in MP, i can't enter S3 suspend either by clicking the power icon or by pushing the physical power button on my case (which is set for S3 suspend). As soon as i exit MP, i can use S3 once again.

There is an entry in the event viewer:
"A request to suspend power was denied by TvService.exe."


Am i missing something basic in the MP/TVserver config?

Hi!

Am i missing something basic in the MP/TVserver config?

You have to use "power sheduler" on both sides (TV-Server and MP / look in the setup). After a defined time (f.e. 3 min) of idle time in MP, MP and TV-Server will go into standby without any need of pushing buttons.

take a look in the faq for your config
