Just to clarify... This means that I have to wait at least 3 seconds "before" I start navigating the menu to the Connect to SqueezeNetwork option... any faster and I cancel the function I initiated. Right? gharris999;245227 Wrote: > > I do have my server set up to WOL, but only with a magic packet.

Hmmm, the CPU does not have Power Management option, so make sure that all the other devices that have an option for Power Management are set to "Allow the Computer to turn off the device". There are also a couple power management options when sharing media under "Advanced Power Management Options" that might also prevent the computer from sleping soundly. This was preventing my main laptop (not the server) running Vista from going into sleep mode. Off topic: Regarless, Vista is a nightmare as it relates to APM and a bigger nightmare over all. If Service Pack 1 does not address all the issues that I'm having with Vista I'm back to XP. gharris999;245227 Wrote: > > But, since it works for you, I'll add the sleep mode to the plugin..

Does this mean that you might add an option to automatically switch to the SqueezeNetwork the moment I select to Shutdown/Restart/Hibernate/Sleep option?... Now you're talking "sweet" icing on the cake. -- tamanaco ------------------------------------------------------------------------ tamanaco's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=4620 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=39154 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
