[QUOTE="versus, post: 517631, member: 90065"] Thank for your suggestions. Of course I know ways other than MP to activate sleep with a remote (Harmony 555). But, why installing some additional software when you can have everything within MP. It is perfectly achievable now, but somehow developers make everything possible to get in a way. 1. SHUTDOWN command is ready to be programmed into a remote but it calls for a submenu (OK, make a submenu command available directly, why not?) 2. ACTION_SUSPEND can be called upon, but it brings another confirmation submenu (even MS don't ask you to confirm sleep command, its more annoying than useful) 3. Topbar buttons IDs (which control shutdown) are not available, while all the other menu and submenu commands are (does anyone know ID of those commands per chance?) I know MP is free and I should be bitching at all, but having so basic feature left out is like having a sports car that you power down by choking the engine instead of using the ignition key. Kinda wierd if you ask me. [/QUOTE]
