    How about SystemEvents.PowerModeChanged

    I'm using it in Vista for checking if suspend is wanted and works OK. It should be much easier to handle it like this and then all remotes are supported.

    Just my 2cents

    that plugin/extension is only needed if you let the system go to suspend mode with your power button.

    under xp you can prevent the suspend mode while a recording is in progress, under vista microsoft has removed this functionality :mad:... why ever...

    So... Yo mean that entering suspend mode manually (power button) is different for the system that doing it automatically (timeout) or through Start->Suspend ?

    It's really curious all around standby options in Vista...

    No, what i mean is:

    under XP: TVserver records something, in PowerScheduler the options is set if a recording is in progress - the pc can not go to standby by pressing the power button > you have a complete recording if you press the power key on the pc or the remote or the menu :D

    under Vista: the same options are active, you press the power button...PC goes to standby > recording are only partially recorded :mad:

    The function where the programmer can avoid that the pc can go in to standby mode is removed under vista because (is documentet on MSDN) most users are worryd while he pressed the power button a programm had avoided the standby/shutdown etc...

    thats all, has nothing to do with the timeout for the suspend state.

    can you avoid with this the suspend from the pc under vista???

    MS had removed the function for that and has enhanced the away mode for this reason - but is not the same like avoiding standby :(

    had you a working example (a winform) so i can check this if its works with mp und tvserver together?

    If this works i can change the code from StandbyWatcher for that :D

    thx

    Hi disaster123, try this attached one...

    Unzip the content to folder on your drive.

    Replace Gentle.config with you own from the MP installation, or edit the settings:

    Code: 
    <DefaultProvider name="SQLServer" connectionString="<PASSWORD>=storage;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=<USERNAME>;Initial Catalog=<DATABASENAME>;Data Source=<SERVER>;Connection Timeout=300;" />

    Start the SW, open it from the tray and change the settings... dont forget to tick the autostart behaviour ;)

    P.S.
    It should be on the same PC.

    good night
    MoPhat

    Try to overwrite the dll with your installed one:

    C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal TV Server\TvControl.dll
