I am only using "standby" - S3 mode. Fortunately, the 240V mains supply at my house is extremely reliable, so I have not lost any scheduled recordings due to a power interruption, yet... .

A much safer option to use would be hibernate (S4), so that if a 240V power interruption occurred while the PC was "asleep", then it would still wake and resume correctly (if the 240V was back on...)

There is a feature in PVR Scheduler, under /EPG/Miscellaneous that enables you to run scripts before standby and upon resume. I have some scripts set up to output commands via the RS232 interface, which power on and un-mute my audio amplifiers upon resume, and which mute and power-off my audio amplifiers before shutdown.
