AW: PowerScheduler++ 1.2.1.2 - Stable version for MediaPortal 1.2.1 FINALIf you do not activate the "PS++ forces standby when idle" option, it will depend on your Windows Power Settings how and when your system goes to a power saving state. If you configure "Sleep after" in Windows Power Settings to "Never", your PC will stay on (S0) until you manually switch it off and will not return to standby after a recording automatically. So the best thing in my eyes is to configure a short idle timeout (5 - 10 minutes) in Windows and leave Windows the standby handling. The "PS++ forces standby when idle" option is only there for compatibility with the original PowerScheduler and for systems which have problem with Windows standby because of hardware / driver bugs.Michael
