Full Version: Power saving question...
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
In tv settings there is a menu named "power saving"

1. What is this?

2. Can it be used on windows?
2a. If so, how?
2b. If not, why not?
2c. if not and never will work in windows, should it really be there in windows builds as its not really unified?

There's no info on this what so ever... It just appeared out of nowhere. Im confused lol!

Cheers,
Loggio.
1. option to shutdown the pc when both xbmc and the backend are idle

2, 2a, 2b. only with vdr as backend currently
Sorry for getting this out of it's deepsleep but I got a question about the powersaving option in the live tv part.

I am using ubuntu plus vdr as backend but if I turn on the powersaving feature nothing happens, is there some how to anywhere (I couldn't find anything) to explain what to do exactly? Right now I got my setwakeup.sh in /usr/bin with the following contents:

Quote:#!/bin/sh
sudo sh -c "echo 0 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm"
sudo sh -c "echo $1 > /sys/class/rtc/rtc0/wakealarm"

Power Saving set to 60min plus a 5 min early wake up

I can't seem to find anything in the xbmc logs about the power saving so I'm not sure where it goes wrong.
