Suspend/Sleep instead of Shutdown in Custom shutdown timer
#1
Hi guys

I've been searching the forums up and down and can't find an answer.
Is it possible to have XBMC instead of shutting down my HTPC, have it go to sleep? The custom shutdown timer shuts it down and I can't turn it on unless I manually press the power button.
Can the custom shutdown timer option be changed or is there a plugin I can use?

Thanks a lot.

Never mind I figured it out by myself.
I changed the function of the button id=4 in DialogButtonMenu under C:\Program Files\XBMC\addons\skin.confluence\720p from XBMC.PowerDown() to XBMC.Suspend()
Hope it helps others out.

Have you tried to change the Shutdown function to suspend in Settings, System, Power saving?

Hello,

You may want to reconsider having your pc go to sleep while xbmc is running. There are loads of threads around here with the problem of stuttering video when the XBMC pc is awoken from sleep. Many go for some sort of reboot of the pcs as that seems to correct the problem. Although this problem may be fixed with the lastest nightlies. Do a search in these forums for more information.
