[QUOTE="TheBatfink, post: 827561, member: 52265"] Hi, I have recently got around to properly configuring TV on my mediaportal setup. I have only one machine with both client and tv server installed. I have powerscheduler configured (both client and TV server plugins) to suspend the PC after 1 hour. I have disabled the sleep only if on the homescreen because I use the machine for general web browsing etc, so mediaportal client is not always running and I'd still like it to sleep as if the windows sleep timers are still enabled (which I set to never sleep in the power config). I do not have 'Forced shutdown' enabled. It works well as long as I never sleep the machine manually which I know is a requirement. My problem is though that it will sleep the PC regardless of whats happening on it. I can be surfing the web, or creating a rar file or doing any normal stuff on my machine and it will just go to sleep regardless. Is this expected behaviour or am I expecting too much? I understand the logic if mediaportal where always running, but I'd expect the timers to 'restart' if there were some interaction between the user and the pc (mouse usage etc), like the windows sleep timer would.
