I use my system in a similar way so that is often well over an hour before I pick up the controller, and that long delay used to drive me crazy, especially when all I wanted to do was mute the system so I could answer the phone. So I experimented with all the various power settings and now have the controller configured so it runs for 12+ hours with Suspend disabled. The controller is instantly available when I need it, and it is rare that I have to put it back in the cradle before the end of the day. The key I think is setting all the screensavers to "Screen Off". Rarely picking up the controller actually helps because it means that most of the time it is sitting there with the screen off. -- CliffC ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CliffC's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=29843 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=67495 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
