[QUOTE="joecrow, post: 1291459, member: 128337"] Yes away mode is enabled and works fine if a recording is underway when the HTPC is put to sleep. With a video playing (I didn't try TV) and a recording is in progress, with the setting disabled, the HTPC still went into away mode and it looks like the video continues to play and is still playing and is displayed on resume from sleep. With the setting enabled the HTPC initially goes into away mode but comes out of it and video returns a few seconds later with the video stopped (possible when it did stop) also on restarting the video following that, 3 out of 5 times it had lost its place and could only be restarted at the beginning and on 1 out of the remaining 2 times it offered to begin at the last played point but restarted at the beginning anyway. So as you speculated the setting does give a different behaviour when the HTPC goes into away mode, albeit a not particularly desirable one (i.e. it inhibits away mode). It strongly looks to me like the setting is a leftover fix for something that is no longer a problem and I suspect it could be entirely removed but at least the default setting should be "disabled".
