[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 877495, member: 82144"] Hi sherbs MP seems to be hanging because communication between the client and TV Server is breaking down, and then Windows is closing MP. The cause of the hang seems to be TV server crashing, but I can't see why... unless it is TsWriter trying to return EPG grabbed and failing because the TV service is asleep. The last activity before sleep in the TV Server logs is the EPG grabber starting to grab. There is no sign of it stopping grab either before or after sleep (which would be a problem - the Powerscheduler should be detecting and preventing this), but equally there is no sign of TV Server hanging after resume because of the TsWriter deadlock that I've previously seen. To me it seems like there is either an issue with the EPG Grabber, Powerscheduler, or system setup, but I honestly can't be sure which of those it is. I think the best approach to finding the problem (and hopefully the solution) would be to disable the Powerscheduler or EPG grabber temporarily to find out which is causing the problem by process of elimination. Note that I assume you're using a static IP address already. To test, you'll need the computer to go to sleep for at least as long as the DHCP lease on your router - maybe 3 hours. mm [/QUOTE]
