    Have you guys disabled automatic Standby/Sleep in Windows Power Management?

    It happened to me again today, I exited MP and wanted to do some maintenance to my DB and after some seconds it went to sleep though I was using the computer. So I woke it up and stopped TVService and it was fine. And I do have those settings mentioned.

    That is intentional behavior. You have to use PowerScheduler++, if you want to prevent the system from going into Sleep mode, when you are doing maintenance. In the regular PowerScheduler this is only achieved by monitoring processes (SetupTV and Configuration by default). In PowerScheduler++ you can prevent the system from going to Sleep, when the MediaPortal client is not running.

    If you experience this problem, you can work around it by adding this setting to your mediaportal.xml settings file:
    <section name="general">
    <entry name="suspendgraceperiod">5</entry>

    The grace period work around was included in 1.2.0 beta, but you need to enter the setting manually.

    I have suggested that we increase the default grace period to prevent such suspends. Let's see if we do it for next MP release. For now you will have to use the above workaround. Therefore I set this thread to "will not fix", but don't take that too literally :)

    AW: Directly going to hibernate again after wake-up

    @all with PowerScheduler++:

    The mentioned config option does not work for PS++ and it is not necessary, because PS++ should have no problem with sudden re-suspends. If you have other experience, please post your error description and logs to the PS++ stable or test version thread.

    AW: Directly going to hibernate again after wake-up

    Today, I still had the problem and I already had the suspendgraceperiod option added, as mentioned above:

    <entry name="suspendgraceperiod">5</entry>

    What is the option doing? Is the problem understood?

    In the meantime I will give PowerScheduler++ a try.

    You should increase the number from 5 to something higher. It is a setting to prevent the machine from going to standby for X amount of seconds after wake-up.
