[QUOTE="joecrow, post: 1304043, member: 128337"] I believe that setting is only available on a laptop, it certainly is not shown on either of my Win 11 PCs. I am however making progress, for the HTPC I had Sleep set to 45 mins, and since the display is a TV which can only be placed in standby with CEC adaptor and the MP plugin I set the display timeout to Never as I did not want the system involved with cutting the video signal to the TV. It appears than any combination of those settings in which the display timeout is longer than the sleep timeout will cause the PC not to timeout to sleep.:oops: When I set the sleep timeout to 1 minute longer than the display timout the PC will first turn off the video to the TV then 1 minute later go to sleep both with or without MP running.:) Just one problem though the system sleep timout is not the same as hitting the standby button on the remote even when MP is running, the PC goes to sleep OK but it does not trigger the CEC plugin to put the TV and AVR in standby so they remain on. Not sure there is a way round that?:mad: [/QUOTE]
