Hi,

since I've got my WinTV-Ci Module I realised that MP hangs my htpc after doing an automatic standby. I get the windows dialogue that windows is preparing for standby and nothing happens anymore. But, when I do a standby using my remote from within MP everything works fine?!

I'm totally confused :confused: detaching or disabling the driver for the wintv-ci solves the problem, but I need the ci module for my pay tv!

I took a look into the logs and everytime when I had the hanging standby windows dialogue I could see in the logs that there was a user input detected!? From the wintv-ci??? So I detached every input device and others too, but guess... same as before :( So I wrote a script using DEVCON to disable the wintv-ci driver before standby (for executing under Power Scheduler under run command) but that didn't work and I'm totally frustrated and out of Ideas for a workaround :( and hope anybody can help me!?! :)

THX & Regards

Hi,

had some time to test now on this issue and found aout that it isnt the driver of the Wintv-Ci that is causing the problems but it seems to be something else, because I unchecked the "Cam enabled" option in the TVServer Config and my HTPC is going to standyb and waking up again without problems!?! But of course my scrambled channels are not reachable :\ So I guess it's something in Mediaportal? A Bug? Hope one of the Devs can have a look on the logs cause I need the two posibilities at once, my scrambled channels and the automatic standby when MP is idle e.g. after a Recording.
