@vbat99: rbphdmi will work automatically, choosing the best method depending on whether "virtual suspend" is supported or not, so it's still worth getting this bin.tvservice script working for you.

Darn it. And it looked like a Win-Win too.

So alt method will be where we exit XBMC, and on power-on XBMC restarts? So I will have to remove that 10 second delay mentioned Here to have a speedier restart.?

So I should wait for a new build without the virtual suspend before commencing.

And one last question. What were the problems being reported? or links so I can read up.

(might have to see about building my own xbmc with virtual suspend....(that'll be a learning curve and a half!))
