[QUOTE="w8andc, post: 967869, member: 15729"] Thanks Michael. Nice to know. So, I've tested EPG grabbing triggered by PowerScheduler++ again. Unfortunately the result is the same as I stated before. Computer nicely woke up from sleep at the configured time. But no trace of activity concerning EPG grabbing. I suppose I have to see in the TV-server setup configuration and the "[I][B]manual control[/B][/I]" section a different state for at least one tuner and the state should set to something like "[B][I]grabbing[/I][/B]"? In the PowerScheduler++ plugin also "[I][B]the standby prevented by[/B][/I]" section should mention something like "[I][B]EPG grabber[/B][/I]"? This is not the case, so I asume the EPG grabber was not started. I searched the [B]EPG.log[/B] file. And look what's logged here: [COLOR=#ff0000][B]2013-02-18 22:05:20.834143 [PowerEventThread(8)]: EPG: grabber disabled[/B][/COLOR] This is exactly the time EPG grabbing was set up in PowerScheduler++ for testing. Now I'm again very confused and doubting about the earlier information that "[I][B]idle epg grabbing[/B][/I]" can be OFF. Must we conclude that "[I][B]idle epg grabbing[/B][/I]" can't be OFF but must be ON to enable the inbuilt EPG grabber? Maybe this is the ON / OFF swtich for the inbuilt EPG grabber? If so, it's not so good. If I switch on the "idle epg grabbing" after just a few seconds the EPG-grabber is active and the epg.log file is changed: [COLOR=#0000ff]2013-02-18 22:54:25.122726 [(5)]: EPG: grabber initialized for 78 transponders..[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]2013-02-18 22:54:26.139855 [DVB EPG timer(4)]: Grab for card:#3 transponder #1/78 channel: 3sat HD[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]2013-02-18 22:54:26.140856 [DVB EPG timer(4)]: EpgCard: grab epg on card: #3 transponder: #0 ch:3sat HD [/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]2013-02-18 22:54:27.728057 [DVB EPG timer(4)]: EpgGrabbing: Start[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]2013-02-18 22:54:27.733058 [DVB EPG timer(4)]: EpgCard: card: 3 starting to grab DVBS:tv:ZDFvision 3sat HD Freq:11347000 ONID:1 TSID:1010 SID:11150 PMT:0x1964 FTA:True LCN:10000 SymbolRate:22000 Modulation:Mod8Psk Polarisation:LinearV InnerFecRate:Rate2_3 DisEqc:None band:Universal Pilot:On RollOff:ThirtyFive[/COLOR] [COLOR=#0000ff]...[/COLOR] Could this be a bug or limitation?
