I am new to the forum as well as this HTPC thing. So far, XBMC has worked out great except for this one problem. I have searched extensively on this forum as well as Google before posting this problem. There are other posts where people have had this problem too but they are usually Windows or Linux and the Mac ones dont really have accepted solutions. So I hope someone is able to help me here.

I have a Mac Mini with XBMC on it. Every time I suspend from within XBMC and then wake up the Mac Mini from either the mouse or remote, the mac mini starts up and shows a white blank screen. There are no sounds if I move the mouse around (which means I may not be in XBMC). using Command+Tab to go to a new window doesnt work which seems like the PC may be hung. I have to kill XBMC using a keyboard and then reload it. This kills the purpose of having a HTPC if I am going to need to have a keyboard around.

In addition, on waking up, I can see the XBMC window for a moment before it disappears and I see the blank white screen. Any ideas folks? My set up is described below.

-Mac Mini - 1.83 Ghz Core 2 Duo with 1Gb Ram and on-board graphics
-Connected to Sony Bravia HDTV using VGA cable
-On mac mini side, using the full DVI port (not the mini DVI) connected to an Apple brand DVI to VGA converter and then VGA to VGA cable.
-Apple Remote
-No other apps running in background on the Mac Mini

This problem doesnt happen if XBMC is not running - if any other Mac program is running and I put the Mac into sleep and wake it up, it displays fine 100% of time. This leads me to believe this is not a Mac mini or display issue. Most likely its a XBMC issue or some setting on the TV or the Mac mini that I need to tweak. In addition when putting into sleep with XBMC running and then waking up, this problem is repeatable 100% of the time.

I apologize for the length of this post. I hope I have given sufficient detail. Once again thanks for your help and for reading this far.

Regards!

Sorry about that. I was trying to be polite and not impose right away with a super long first post. Heres a log from this morning. Thanks again for all your help.

Also, heres a more recent log where the white screen wouldnt go away and i couldnt kill xbmc either (command+alt+esc, enter, enter) and had to hardware reboot. I dont think the logs reflect that it was hung but maybe they do - you probably know better.

enable debug in setting. use http://www.pastebin.com.

lapino · 2011-11-28, 13:07

got the same problem, ever found a solution to this?

Torroa · 2012-01-13, 19:31

The Mac is running, but the display does not wake up. I doubt the XBMC log would be of any help. You can probably wake up the screen by pressing the power button on back of the mini.

I did find a solution to this a few days back, but sorry to say, unable to locate the fix. It did have something to do with edit an apple plist file, possible the com.apple.PowerManagement.plist

One solution that seems to work for me, but with a possible negative side effect? is to disable "wake for network access" in power management.

davilla · 2012-01-13, 19:39

please do NOT try and out think why we want to see xbmc.log, unless you are very familiar with the source code and the order at which things occur, you will miss the clues.

Torroa · 2012-01-14, 00:10

Okey. I did reproduce this with the wake for network access setting.

Here is the Debugged Log. First resume is without, the second is with, ending with a black screen when resuming from standby.

bigbully · 2012-01-15, 23:40

I have also noticed that "wake on lan" seems to be an issue for me as well. Potentially having the display shut off before suspend also seems as it may be an issue although I'm not sure on that one yet. I'm looking for a work around because I need it to wake for network access.

Torroa · (This post was last modified: 2012-02-02, 19:56 by Torroa.)

I do believe I figured this one out. I added darkwake=0 as a boot string. It is =1 as default in Lion, and causing the display not to not wakeup using the remote. This only apply when enabling the WOL function in Lion System settings.

Here is what I did in terminal:

sudo nano /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.Boot.plist

Code:
