For instance you can start a recording and push the power button. The system will go into low power, but the recording will continue.Another scenario is that you have a all in one remote that shuts down the avr/pc/tv with one push of a putton. In that case you don't want to turn the PC if there is a recording.The following things must be done to enable this.1) Enable POS S3  in biosS3 (STR) Standby: In this state, the CPU has no power, the power supply is in a reduced power mode, main memory (RAM) is still powered, although it is almost the only component that is. Since the state of the operating system and all applications, open documents, etc. lies all in main memory, the user can resume work exactly where they left off the main memory content when the computer comes back from S3 is the same as when it was put into S3. S3 has two advantages over S4; the computer is faster to resume than to reboot, secondly if any running applications (opened documents, etc) have private information in them, this will not be written to the disk. However, disk caches may be flushed to prevent data corruption in case the system doesn't wake up e.g. due to power failure. STR means Save To RAM. In modern operating systems it's called as: Standby in versions of Windows through Windows XP and in some varieties of Linux, Sleep in Windows Vista and Mac OS X.2) Change power button in enery settings. Power button must be mapped to sleep.3) shutdown tv server. The attached bins should replace those currently on the tv server (works for 1.1.1.0, but should also work for 1.1.0.0)4) Test. Start a recording and press power button.P.S 1 It might also work for Vista, but then I think you need special 'away mode' support in bios.P.S. 2 Always make backups before testing.EnjoyMr Hipp</blockquote>
