JRiver Media Center 27.0.73 Silicon/Intel BETA for Mac -- Available here
Awesome Donkey:
Chances are the universal Media Center 27 app on your M1 is running the ARM (Apple Silicon) binary and I've yet to see any VST plugins compiled for that (but please correct me if there are any out there!). Of course you certainly won't be able to use plugins compiled for Intel x86_64-based Macs within the ARM (Apple Silicon) binary for Media Center. VST plugins only work for the OS and architecture they're compiled for. In addition, Media Center for ARM (Apple Silicon) has to support VST plugins compiled for that OS and environment as well, and there's a chance support for that hasn't been added yet as Bob's been busy with lots of things as of late. Bob will likely know for sure if they're supposed to work or not.
I'm afraid right now that the only likely workaround is you'd have to switch Media Center via Rosetta 2 to use the Intel (x86_64) binary instead of the ARM (Apple Silicon) binary to get VST plugins working. Thankfully there's an easy guide to get this working and switch between the Apple Silicon and Intel versions of a universal app: https://www.howtogeek.com/702982/how-to-launch-the-intel-version-of-a-universal-mac-app-on-apple-silicon/

Looks like it's doing what it's supposed to.
Machine?
OS?
Where is your library stored?
Where are the files stored?

If you look in Activity monitor it shows as 'preventing sleep' always no matter play pause or stopped. This is what's blocking it. v62 switches to No once stopped. Ideally MC would also destruct it's core audio session on pause and just reconstruct it on play but waiting say 60 seconds on pause would also be fine for whatever performance reasons. Exactly what happens is if I bottom left corner to sleep the mac the screen sleeps but immediately wakes back up again after a few seconds as long as 'prevents sleep' is Yes. Also when I go to bed the screen and mac never sleeps but will stay on all night. Quitting MC allows sleep.

That's interesting since I can't reproduce it and your log shows proper power manager actions:
--- Code: ---0090557: 4584336896: General: CSystemPowerManager::ApplyActionsToSystem: Doing JRiver keepalive
0090558: 4584336896: General: CSystemPowerManager::ApplyActionsToSystem: Releasing kIOPMAssertPreventUserIdleDisplaySleep
--- End code ---
You don't have a lot of Logging, if I saw another line like this:
--- Code: ---0090557: 4584336896: General: CSystemPowerManager::ApplyActionsToSystem: Doing JRiver keepalive
--- End code ---
AFTER the release and after some period of time I'd say that was an issue.
I also find it a bit odd that you are only showing the one
--- Code: ---kIOPMAssertPreventUserIdleDisplaySleep
--- End code ---
state on/off. I get other variations with regards to deep sleep and network activity as well.
dfortney:
I just did the one mouse to sleep and wake cycle to show the problem. I wasn't sure how long you need it to be logging or what to do. You can see the problem in Activity Monitor by enabling the 'Prevent Sleep' column and stop your music and see that it remains 'Yes'. While any process is preventing sleep it won't sleep. monitor will look like it goes to sleep but then pop back on only moments later. It never really sleeps. Killing MC lets it sleep for real. What I know about Mac from working on Menubus as a developer is 'prevents sleep' is true as long as you have an open coreaudio session in the process. You need to close and destroy the session to release the sleep.
