I have the Hauppauge remote that comes with the Nova PCI DVB-T board and it can (also) not turn on the monitor again. So I have the same problem.

I would suggest that the turn off monitor feature should activate/deactive when the blank screen saver starts and stops e.g. it should use the same algorithm.

Hopefully someone will fix this in the future.

Else 100% thumbs up for this HTPC software and keep up the good work!

Hi,
Have you tested the latest SVN, there have been some changes there & it should be solved.

I am using 0.2.0.4 - and as far I understand, I must use 0.2.0.0 to be able to use SVN correctly.

I also worked around that by letting Girder be the one that controls monitor-sleep.

Yes I noticed.

It was fixed some days ago. I actually also found the bug myself.
