[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1248166, member: 109222"] No definitely not. The default behavior is to allow standby and wake up the system if a recording (or epg grabbing or system restart or,...) is scheduled. That's why the PowerScheduler plugin exists and is a core part of MP2. This plugin "tells" Windows about scheduled tasks (like recordings, EPG- grabbing,...) so Windows can handle the standby management as wanted by the user. And as an extra it can take over the standby handling if this is not (properly) working in Windows itself. Only if you explicit deactivate this plugin you need to run the server 24/7 as then the MP2 server don't "speak" to Windows about scheduled tasks.. Normally you don't need to configure anything for the system to wake up for a scheduled recording. PowerScheduler Plugin is for very good reasons part of the main MP2 installer and is activated by default. Indeed a proper PVR function simply is impossible without the PowerScheduler plugin. So it's a very bad idea to deactivate this plugin if you ever want to schedule a recording... I really don't understand why [USER=74879]@HTPCSourcer[/USER] think Powerscheduler is obsolete. It is not, never was and most likely never will be as long as we use the MP TV Engine (no matter if it is the recent 3.0 or the never finished 3.5 or any other not even planed future version). The PowerScheduler Client!!!!! Plugin known from MP1 is obsolete in MP2, It even don't exist and never has existed in a MP2 version. But the PowerScheduler TV engine Plugin is an essential part of the TV Engine and is more important than the Web-EPG or XMLTV or any other plugin. . [/QUOTE]
