Title: MC doesn't wake PC up for recordings
Post by: imeric on September 01, 2021, 11:52:19 am
Not sure if it's with the latest builds but MC 28 (latest beta) won't wake my PC up to record TV shows.
I don't see anything in the TV logs...

There really is not any recent change that could cause an issue like this.  I can't think of any reason why this happened.

Make sure you're allowing wakes.  I turned it off accidentally once.

Enabled as per attached.

I just found this older post highlighting hte same issue:  https://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php/topic,86675.msg592629.html#msg592629

Could this be related? How do I troubleshoot this?
It is an older Core 2 Extreme MOBO could this be related to a BIOS setting?

I can try to set manual wake timers in the task scheduler I guess...

But that issue was fixed and it specifically happened only if the user forces the computer to sleep in Theater View.

I switched from s3 to s1 in the bios will see what happens. I’ll check with my newer rigs as well and post back.
Thx Yaobing.
