Hello, I'm a relative newbie to the SB and the SC. I've been using v6.5 until I upgraded to SC v7.3.1. I use an old Dell laptop running Windows XP SP2.
I notice from the web interface page at Settings->BasicSettings->Plugins that the plugin "Windows: Prevent System Standby While Playing" is now included by default in the standard installation. Is this the same plugin that was previously available as an optional download in v6.5? This version of the plugin I had previous used could be configured to specify a time period during which the plugin would be active, so that for example, the plugin would allow the machine to go into standby after 2:00am. Now, with this latest plugin, as far as I can tell, there is no way to configure the plugin, and the machine never goes into standby. In fact, to allow the XP standby feature to work, I have to prevent SC running as a Windows service, and reboot the machine. Simply stopping SC does not re-enable the XP standby feature. While getting ready to post this, I noticed this post on the 3rd Party Plugins user forum: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 "This is the release candidate 4 version (updated 20081031) of the SrvrPowerCtrl plugin." Is this the same plugin, or something completely different? It would be nice to be able to configure when the plugin is not active, to allow the macine to go into standby. Can this plugin do this? I notice that the feature summary includes the following: * Wait until sleep playing has concluded before shutdown/suspend/etc. * Monitor attached players and shutdown the server after an idle period. Many thanks for any help received, Paul -- ppmoore ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ppmoore's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13157 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57302 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
