Automatic WakeOnLan upon accessing MySql or FileShares

Yes, if your shares are mapped directly from xbmc to that secondary nas.

If you insist on having xbmc access nas1:/share (which is in fact a map of a sleeping nas2:/share) then no, since this setup is deliberately cloaking nas2.

They are two different devices, but I don't use XBMC's SMB:// protocol, I map my SMB shares as network shares (X:\Music for instance)

Can I still use this when accessing files from X:\ ? or do I have to use XBMC's built in protocols?

You need to use XBMC's smb:// syntax when defining your share, then it should work. You should do that anyway so that what gets scraped into the MySQL db has correct path to your media so it can be accessed from other (non-windows) XBMC installs ..

New Windows build available.

There has been some reviewing of the PR on github and patch has been updated accordingly ;
patch for master ; http://www61.zippyshare.com/v/73169178/file.html
patch for frodo ; http://www61.zippyshare.com/v/37016613/file.html (backported)
-there is now a different way to avoid the problem we had before where progress-dialog would freeze or 'loop over and over', it looks OK on my OE machines but it would be great to also get some experience from a windows build. (sorry kricker that this came right after you just built one)

openelec/rpi (contains xbmc 12.1.3) ; http://www26.zippyshare.com/v/48168927/file.html

I pulled from your XBMC github page yesterday morning after your updates. But no biggie. I'll make a new one today. I'm happy it got some attention again and I'm also glad you haven't given up on the PR. Nice work. This feature is a must have in my house now.

And my house. Heres a frodo branch for pi and windows pulled from github yesterday so pre 12.2?

Super, let me know if there are issues (as I mentioned there is a different way now to avoid problems when displaying progress-box..) So far my OE has behaved fine, but I am not using 'update library at startup' which seemed to increase chance of getting into trouble

Hey,

the https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1026...412.tar.gz is for patching a current pi version right?

This is still the way to go for patching a running version?

Code:
Installing your build

With your xbmc-rbp tarball FTPd to your home directory, the following commands will suffice for installing and launching the new XBMC:
sudo initctl stop xbmc
sudo tar -xzf xbmc-rbp*.tar.gz -C /opt
sudo initctl start xbmc
Be sure to check system information for build date details to verify you are running your build.

Thanks again for the work you do, all of you!

sw4y: yes thats it.

t4: so far no complaints.

Don't know why, but since I installed the latest patch, my server does not go into standby anymore.
Seems as if the pi always sends a ping or something else that prevents a standby.

Any solution?

No issues here. What is your server, is there a file open? Need more details really, what devices are connecting, does it sleep when they are all off?

And check xbmc.log - if "woa" kicks in there will be a log-entry indicating which file or db caused it

Hey, I'm sorry.

My server is a Windows Home Server 2011 machine that hosts the recording service for dvbviewer and the mysql database for xbmc.
It also uses the WHS Addon Lightsout, that manages standby or wake up things.
Connected to the server are my HTPC (Windows) and one RPI.

When the PI is disconnected, the standby works as it should.

I had the PI running with an unpatched version and the standby worked as normal - but in that case the pi did not wake up the server when accessing files so I decided to switch.

The xbmc.log makes no sense to me, unfortunately.
Maybe I can upload it somewhere or send per mail?

Thanks to you that you take your time - I appreciate that!

Is HTPC(Windows) patched too?
Look for someting like this in log file "21:36:21 T:2104 NOTICE: WakeOnAccess [10.0.0.6] trigged by accessing : MySQL : MyMusic33" or upload to http://xbmclogs.com/
