[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 852592, member: 49539"] After reading all of the recommendations here about how much better this is than the built-in PS plugin, I gave it a try. Unfortunately, I am very disappointed. I was hoping to let the Windows timeout take over, so as not to have to specify all of the exceptions, but the DVB EPG is keeping my system awake. Since switching to PS++, I also get an error message every time I log in as admin, saying that windows recovered from an exceptional shutdown. This is quite surprising, since I have disable forced shutdown (which I found enabled by default). Looking at the logs, it looks as though MP is crashing the system almost immediately after waking for EPG grabbing at 4 AM. After restarting from this, things look normal, but the system rarely if ever shuts down, because it is always busy updating EPG. Since this is supposed to be a separate plugin, I thought I would be able to disable it and go back to the built-in plugin if I didn't like it, but it seems to have replaced the built-in PS plugin completely. Logs attached, any advice welcome! P.S. Even choosing "Hibernate" from MP's own power management menu doesn't work! [/QUOTE]
