Please could you describe shortly what you did and what happened on your system (the discussion in the thread refernced is a bit lengthy and I do not know what you mean exactly). From the logs I cannot see any crash, but this does not say much...

With the following steps MP always freeze on my system:
resume MP from standby.
Go to the recordings.
Watch a recorded tv.
Press EXIT on the remote to return to the recordings menu.
Press INFO on the remote(F9 on keyboard) to open the info menu.
Then the GUI is frozen and I have to kill the application.

I have no problem if I close MP and start it again after the resume from standby.

P.S. I want to open the info menu to delete the viewed recording.
Is the same happening if use the keyboard / PC's power button instead of the remote? And please could you resend logs of this test and tell me the exact time the freeze is? And, please wait one minute when MP is up and running before you suspend your PC.

Thank you

Michael

    aside from your possible bug... you can use the "0" Key on your Remote to delete the selected Recording.
    Thank You for the tip, good to know.
    But unfortunately MP also freeze after pressing "0" Key.

    Resume work when the TV is not turned off.

    As a work around I can to turn on the TV 15sec. before the PC.
    Thats work fine.

    Excuse, I just fully understood that my problem has nothing to do with standby and resume.
    It is only a problem with initialisierung of the video or audio devices(HDMI).
    But the behavior of MP is a bit strange at this point.
    Much work properly, only a few functions lead to a crash.

    What can I do if the PC is already running for a scheduled recording?
    Then I have to start the TV when the PC is already running and the problem is back.
    Is there any possibility to go round the problem In this case?
    How can I find what goes wrong on my system?

    Take a look at this Wiki:
    http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/1_MEDIAPORTAL_1/16_Support/2_FAQ/HDMI_Trouble

    The 'pin 19' solution is the cheapest, but needs to handwork ;)
    Instead of a HDMI detective you should also be able to use a HDMI splitter (i've got 1 behind my receiver output). Something like this should be good enough (i've got something similar behind my receiver, and never have handshake issues):

    Yeps, that's what should keep the connection 'open' with the device, since the splitter always detects the TV. At least, that's how it works here (no guarantees!)

    Or is it possible to solve the problem with another graphics card?
    I can replace my AMD-device against a Nvidia.
    I have a MSI-N610GT available for tests.
