[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1161295, member: 74879"] I continued testing (to the degree possible while following the tragic Paris events on French TV), I encountered some playback issues (stuttering, repeated sounds, repeated frames), which turned out to be due to high CPU usage. [I]svchost.exe[/I] showed a CPU load of some 50% - no surprise that there is not much capacity left for MePo. My first thought was that this might for some obscure reason be due to Seb's testing version. So I installed the latest 1.13pre build over it, restarted and had no CPU trouble anymore. However, after standby/hibernate and resume the CPU load was again high, albeit lower than before - this time not because of [I]svchost.exe[/I] but because of [I]lsass.exe[/I], which was using ~25% CPU. The phenomenon disappears after a fresh Windows start, which makes me suspect the automatic user logon process to be responsible. Regarding the main issue of MePo not being functional after resume: Waking up the PC this morning resulted in the usual initial view of a smaller MePo homescreen on top of a larger desktop. Eventually this switched to the standard resolution, however, MePo was unreactive (i.e. "frozen"), but could be terminated from the taskbar. I will reinstall Seb's test version to verify the resume behavior on my system, while hopefully being able to resolve the CPU load troubles. ...to be continued [/QUOTE]
