[QUOTE="jcee, post: 104821, member: 10506"] While checking out these both apps/modules, I wondered how they are exactly supposed to work. I think some other users here feel the same and are confused, so maybe someone could explain to us... I understand that PVR-Scheduler is an external app that can interface with MP and can transfer recording schedules from online website to MP. It could also put the system into standby(hibernate) and/or wake it up. Here my main questions: 1. In MP plugins there are a couple of plugins: External Control II, PVR-Scheduler, Powerscheduler. What do they do? How do they interact. 2. Powerscheduler and PVR-Scheduler can both do the same: Putting the system into standby, so why prefer the one over the other? Do I get into trouble when using both? Does one work without the other or do they depend on eachother? 3. Powerscheduler and PVR-Scheduler can both put the system in standby or hibernate. But how is wake-up addressed? I understand that PVR-scheduler has an option to wake-up by CMOS-timer, but what is possible without? How does the PC wake-up from e.g. hibernation without CMOS-timer? Is there ANY way to wake-up, when ones motherboard is not supported with CMOStimer? 4. Is there any roadmap to integrate these things a little bit more into MP?! When it comes to just having a video-recorder-replacement-PC, it is mandatory to have sleep/wake-up features. I did some power consumption testing and I came out with this: - PC running MP : 110W - PC standby : 35W - PC hibernation : 30W What I find interesting: It consumes at least 30W, even when powered of by soft-off!!! I checked with a real power meter, so quite reliable.. One more question: 5. I enabled the powerscheduler plugin in MP and I scheduled some recordings. Then a day or so later I switch on TV, move the mouse as the screensaver has been switched on and a second later the screen is on. I see a dialog box saying it will hibernate in x seconds!!! (Note the system was not in standby) I wonder how this can be seen!?! I really do not understand how to really set all this up in the correct manner, maybe due to a lack of understanding. Believe me, I read the forum. But could someone give some remarks/explanations?! As said, this might me usefull to a couple other users too.. [/QUOTE]
