    When I set up TV recording based on EPG grabbing when idle, and in PowerScheduler I check ON the "Do not put the computer to sleep while grabbing EPG", then MP will not go to sleep after the EPG grabbing has finished and MP is in idle.

    Steps to reproduce (EPG grabbing when idle):
    • Start MP with EPG grabbing when idle (to repeat it asap you can delete EPG manually in manual control in TV Server configuration tool)
    • Start MP and keep it in idle
    • MP executes EPG grabbing
    • MP does not go to sleep mode when EPG grabbing finished and timer for sleep mode elapsed.

    Hello,
    no comment from anybody?

    AFAIK there is 2 options for EPG grabbing - when idle or when TV active (timeshift/recording).

    In case of "when idle" the functionality "Do not put the computer to sleep while grabbing EPG" is ON is a must I would say to be sure the EPG is done whole. In this case HTPC (single seat) does not go to sleep anymore (even the EPG grabbing is done and the sleep timer is done as well).

    The issue is in Win 8+ only (single seat config).
    In Win 7 it works fine (single seat config)
