How to Wake MP Up after it's been sitting for a while? (1 Viewer)

[RDabate]

Hello,

I'm new to MP, but learning quick. I've trained my Universal Remote to working MP using USB-UIRT and it's been working pretty good. I also have a wireless keyboard setup. When I turn on my TV, after a few hours, the only way I can wake up MP is bye hitting the escape key on my wireless keyboard. I'd like to be able to do it from the remote, but I'm not sure what I need to do for that. I kind of thought if I just press a few buttons like up or down, that it would wake up MP, but not such luck.

Any suggestions?

Hmmm. MP doesn't "sleep" so it doesn't need to be woken up. I have my Windows settings to never sleep, hibernate, turn off drives, whatever. Just always on so its ready to go at any instant. But to conserve energy, I do have the PC automatically shut down at like 1am and then turn back on again around 4pm so its only running for about 8hrs per day around the time I might be using it.
