[QUOTE="joecrow, post: 1295049, member: 128337"] I tried setting the windows screensaver to power off the display on my MP1 HTPC but in fact it only blanks the screen ("no video signal") on the TV I suspect the AVR has something to do with that. If I manually put the TV only into standby when TV is playing but paused then on wakeup I could not immediately take it out of pause and needed a number of button presses on the remote (esc, back OK etc.) before playback resumed (though not exactly from the same place but again that test may have been muddied since the AVR also goes into standby with the TV. :unsure: I also tried it out on my Desktop PC which just has a simple monitor display with MP2, either using the Windows "power off the display" timeout or manually switching the display off had no effect on the paused TV it resumed perfectly, tested several times. Note though I am using the TV Mosaic MP2 version which uses a very different TV Server so the problem could be in the TV Service which is very similar in both MP1 and the MP2 standard version. I would echo the response from [USER=141969]@CyberSimian[/USER] if it is just the screensaver you need then maybe use the MP one which works perfectly for me and for power saving try looking for any options in your TV settings.
