[QUOTE="MyPVR, post: 756922, member: 25053"] The machine is not running 24/7: It's configured to enter the standyby mode under some conditions: The VM guest [I]WHS[/I] is configured NOT to shut down / hibernate / standby after a period of time (setup 24/7). The VM server is configured to "follow" the power modes of the VM host [I]HTPC[/I]. [I]HTPC[/I] is configured NOT to shut down / hibernate /standby (setup 24/7, no login after resume) because of user inactivity. On the [I]HTPC[/I] the TV server and the client from MediaPortal is running (multi seat setup). Additionally the plugin "Power Scheduler" is active and configured to: [LIST] [*]Enter standby only if MediaPortal in home screen [*]Automatic stanby after 15 min without user activities [*]No standby while recording [*]Resume [I]HTPC[/I] 5 min before a recording starts [*]Standby 5 min after recodring stops [/LIST] Beside "Power Scheduler" the plugin "[WIP] HomeServer Plugin" is running and configured to prevent the HTPC to go to stanby by heartbeat tracking of: [LIST] [*]Desktop [*]Second HTPC in the bedroom [/LIST] The trick is not done by the virtual WHS, it's more like "as long as MediaPortal records a movie or is not in the home screen or my desktop/2nd HTPC is running, the VM host [I]HTPC[/I] is not shutting down (so the WHS and TV server are up and running). Helpfull? Hopefully ;) Otherwise I need to explain it in German... Regards, MyPVR [/QUOTE]
