[QUOTE="Pletskop, post: 363142, member: 86913"] Hi Martin, I had similar problems with the Power Scheduler not seeming to function. Sometimes my PC would wake up, sometimes it wouldn't. Looking through the logs [check the "extensive logging" feature/box in the Powerschedule TVS/Client config], I started noticing that in some cases - although it was aware there was a wake-up event - it didn't set it the wake-up timer properly. Turns out that you can only be sure this is done properly if you let Power Scheduler handle the complete standby/hibernate/sleep routine. In my case, I sometimes put the machine to sleep using my remote and not by letting the power scheduler handle it. I noticed that in these cases the wake-up events were not always correctly set. I currently have configured Power Scheduler TVS/Client to shutdown after 5 mins in non-activity and only if MP is on the Home Screen [client config setting]. So, bottom-line: 1. Activate "extensive logging" to get more info on what is going on. Entries can be found in tv.log. 2. Let Power Scheduler shutdown your HTPC instead of forcing it with the remote. I haven't had any issues with MP not waking up since then. Hope this helps, Peter [/QUOTE]
