depends on how you want it to work. Do you want the screensaver to be off all the time, or just in fullscreen video?
For what you want, you can go to powerscheduler in the plugins section and change the shutdown section to "None-or Windows built in" and then set the shutdown time to something very large. I think that will work, but you'll have to test.
All screensavers are inactive when watching fullscreen video, but most people have it set to blank the screen when in menus for some time, to avoid damage to plasmas and the like.

I also have never used a set-top box with MP, but I think that you need to use an IR emitter (aka "IR blaster"). The IRSS software controls the emitter, and transmits IR signals under the direction of MP. The IR signal is received by the IR receiver within the set-top box, and so can be used to change channel and so on. The set-top...

Since I played around with all the settings as per the previous posts and despite putting everything back to how it was, as far as I can tell, now when my HTPC wakes up to make a recording it no longer does so in away mode.
