Well, I have tested this for almost a week now. And there is something wrong with it.
Only some times will the computer wake up to a recording, so it CAN_NOT be trusted for your favourite shows.
The idle time switch works, it always shuts down after 5 mins. (5 mins is what I set it to)
I also have this problem, with all releases I tried so far (0.2.2.0 ... 0.2.3.0 RC3 + SVN 16319)
Where is this "reinitialize service" checkbox you talked about? I can't find it.
Still can't find it. Ther is only a "Re-init tuners..." checkbox which means something completely different in my view. However checking this box power sheduler seemes to be working now. I'll do some hard test to find which cases will cause power scheduler not to wake-up the media center.
Thanks for the prompt response.
... I did some testing. I works fine until I send the machine to sleep with the power button of the remote. Is there a way to configure a hotkey to direct access the suspend command from MediaPortal's power down menu?
