Thanks at least I now know what to test at some point. My W10 PC has the same states but when I testing I have been using the "power" control which offer "Sleep" , "Restart" or "shutdown!. No indication what "Sleep" corresponds to - Hibernate, S3 or Hyrbid Sleep. My Hibernate does not need a password ! My PC is not wired as it is not normally in use as Windows or even LMS server. To test would require wiring a player and also wiring the W10 server. So when PC is put to sleep - all the players are actually playing. Synced players add a level of timing resulting in undetermined variability which I think could affect playback especially coming out of sleep. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110469 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
