[QUOTE="craigparris1, post: 384508, member: 75254"] Man, have I had all sorts of problems with standby/resume. In the end, I knocked up a small .Net app which monitors the power events on the PC, and runs code (which is in separate script files) to do various things - like close MP client when going to standby, and restart when resuming. However, sometimes (particularly on automatic resume for recordings and EPG-grabbing), even this app doesn't seem to get notified of a "resume" event, so the MP client doesn't actually start up. This really didn't use to happen in the past, so I can only assume that there's been some Windows update that I've applied that's buggered things up. For me, the MPStandbyHandler wouldn't recognise standby or resume at any time - so it wasn't much help. Anyhow, TV-Service still works fine in terms of putting the PC to sleep and waking it up when needed, so I can handle having to manually start MP client every now and again, if it doesn't happen automatically (I have a button programmed on my remote to start the MP client). I've come to the conclusion that looking at other people's posts about standby/resume to find an actual solution to your problem is probably not going to happen - everybody has slightly different things happening, which are obviously quirks due to different hardware and OS versions/patches, etc. The best you can hope for is something that gives you a bit of a pointer to what the problem might be and hopefully you can work it out from there.
