Dear community,
please find at the first post of this thread and in our plugin repository the updated version v1.2.1 of PowerControl. This update was required to fix a MediaPortal 1.4.0 specific timer issue in case threaded plugin loading is enabled.

Cheers, Micropolis

    Hm ...

    there seems to be a issue since the update.

    I reinstalled MediaPortal (1.4) and reconfigured PowerControl, but everytime i try to set my NAS into
    Hibernate the Plugin is shuting down the NAS.

    I tried the Buttons restart, hibernate and so on, but everytime the NAS is shutting down.

    Can you have a look to your plugin, pls ?

    Hello,
    ... I reinstalled MediaPortal (1.4) and reconfigured PowerControl, but everytime i try to set my NAS into Hibernate the Plugin is shuting down the NAS ...
    I have tried to reproduce this issue more than 5 times, but I'm not able to find the root cause. I'm 100% sure, that from the code side nothing has been changed in the last official version. Do you have tried only the buttons or do you get the same result in case you start a action manually?
    Maybe it's a good idea to provide logs and a hint, if you have enabled threaded plugin loading or not.

    Cheers, Micropolis

    Dear community,
    please find at the first post of this thread and in our repository version 1.4.0 of PowerControl. This update is required to support the upcoming version of MediaPortal v1.6.0.

    Important: Due to massive changes of my plugin framework please be aware, that all other installed plugins of my collection must be updated simultaneously. I do not accept error posts for eventual potenial problems in case this hint should be ignored.

    • due to architectural changes in the core libraries, all plugins must be updated simultaneously
    • internal update mechanism has been changed with this version, the old way should work until end of October 2014 only
    Cheers, Micropolis

    Dear community,
    I'm happy to present you the newest release of PowerControl, which can be downloaded from the well known places as usual. This version contains a shelveset to share your plugin related settings and profiles across devices and services. In principle all network storages, cloud services (e.g. OneDrive, Dropbox) or any other storage you would like to use should work as expected.

    To allow such a functionality, major changes inside the plugin code was necessary. Before using this new version and/or the sharing feature, it is highly recommended to follow the steps below:
    • To share passwords and keys, all synchronized devices must be in the same network domain or workgroup. Additionally a redeveloped crypthographic algorithm was required. Due to this change all saved passwords or provider keys must be entered again using the configuration dialog.
    • Before starting with settings and profile sharing, possible device or service specific configurations should be checked to prevent access or synchronization problems later. For more information, please take a look into the manual (chapter "Settings and Profile Sharing") or the troubleshooting guide.
    • In case you decide to disregard the sharing feature, the plugin will work in the same way as before.

    Unfortunately from now on the release rate of this plugin must be reduced due to time and budget issues. I'm not able any longer to work nearly each evening on plugin improvements or enhancements. Of course bug fix releases will be published in a regular way, possibly in combination with the release cycle of MediaPortal. If you would support future development, I was pleased to receive a small donation. This would help to bring my 5-years old development environment back up to date. The donation link can be found in the first post of this thread and in the about box of the plugin.

    Of course, I continue to look forward to your feedback, bug reports or feature requests. How quickly such changes can be implemented, the future will answer it.

    Thank you and regards,
    Micropolis
