Can MediaPortal resume from sleep to record TV and then send Windows in sleep mode once finished recording?
Basically I would like to schedule some recoding while away on vacation.

Yes, it can. Just configure powerscheduler in the TV-server config (you can find documentation in the wiki).

hm, weird. it can't access the file because its in use by another process... Wonder what that other one is. Can you try excluding the recording folder of all background processes? (f.e. defender/antivirus etc, and maybe (don't know if that is even a thing) from creating thumbnails) Edit: and is it always the second time it succeeds...

MP1 MP2 is media portal a standalone or is internet connection required for live TV recordings? DE

On the assumption you are using an OTA/Cable or Sat tuner then no internet connection is required for live TV recordings. BUT only if you already have Media Portal fully installed and functional. For all practical purposes you will need an internet connection to get Media Portal properly installed on a PC! Yes.
