[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1178364, member: 82144"] I'm always happy to try to help. :) MP is not responsible for waking the AVR or TV, so I really think this is a CEC Remote plugin problem. Therefore IMHO you should report it to the CEC Remote plugin developer(s)/maintainer(s). Your description suggests the CEC Remote plugin is not detecting user input correctly. When the option is checked, input is not detected => TV and AVR never wake. When the option is not checked => TV and AVR are woken regardless of input detection. Again, I don't think this is MP's problem. CEC Remote plugin must detect user input correctly in order to wake the TV and AVR according to your preferences. Certainly the log files do not show away mode being used. However I have no evidence that away mode is suppressed. Could it just be your Windows power configuration? Thank you! (y) For MP1-1, everything seems to be almost exactly as you described. I would only describe the 10:26 and 10:27 events slightly differently... At 10:26, MP definitely woke without user input: [2016-03-13 10:26:03,007] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_APMRESUMEAUTOMATIC) As a result, the user interface would have been disabled (as you described: "hung state"). Shortly after, the display was turned on: [2016-03-13 10:26:08,070] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_POWERSETTINGCHANGE) ... [2016-03-13 10:26:08,070] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: The display is on I don't know why this happened. It's out of MP's control. I would have thought the display could be off and the PC could be in away mode since Windows (and MP) knows that the PC was not woken by user interaction. Nevertheless, the MP user interface would still have been intentionally disabled because Windows did not notify of any user interaction. As expected (due to your CEC Remote config), CEC remote woke the TV and AVR without waiting for user input: [2016-03-13 10:26:10,757] [Log ] [CECResA ] [DEBUG] - CecRemote: Wake Tv ... Done. [2016-03-13 10:26:11,289] [Log ] [CECResA ] [DEBUG] - CecRemote: Wake AudioSystem ... Done. After ~30 seconds you press a button on the remote. That triggers MP to enable the user interface: [2016-03-13 10:26:45,072] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_POWERSETTINGCHANGE) [2016-03-13 10:26:45,072] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: User is providing input to the session [2016-03-13 10:26:45,072] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: Providing input - Resuming operation of user interface Now MP is fully awake and functional. In short, this situation seems to be exactly as expected based on the configuration at the time. For MP1-2... I think this part is one of the problems for you, right? In the log I see MP resumes [B]due to user input[/B]: [2016-03-13 11:05:02,007] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_APMRESUMESUSPEND) As if that wasn't enough, Windows also notifies MP of user input: [2016-03-13 11:05:07,138] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: WM_POWERBROADCAST (PBT_POWERSETTINGCHANGE) [2016-03-13 11:05:07,153] [Log ] [MPMain ] [INFO ] - Main: User is providing input to the session I can see that CEC Remote did not wake the TV or AVR, but I don't know why. User input was clearly signalled by Windows. MP got the messages and passed them on to CEC Remote. Therefore I think this behaviour may indicate that CEC Remote has a bug in detection of user input. As mentioned earlier, I don't see away mode used and I can't explain it. For that, all that I can recommend is to check your Windows power settings. ...but how do you confirm that MP is responsive? If you press a key/button or move the mouse, that will activate MP... so in other words, that would be a pointless test. Maybe the only proper way to check if MP is responsive would be to check if the clock/time is updated. Again, AFAIK MP is not responsible for controlling away mode. That's Windows' job. That's why I've recommended to check your Windows power settings. Best regards, mm [/QUOTE]
