Hello Kodi developers,
in C++ it is a simple set of two code lines to get this done:
I would guess that something equal is also made by Kodi. How does (should) it work?
I'm asking because it seems that this Kodi feature is not working always:
Playing video (TV stream) in Kodi -> the Windows power management is aware about it, i.e. it does not kick in after the defined timeout. All is running fine.
Playing music (radio stream) in Kodi -> the Windows power management is not aware about it, i.e. it does kick in after the defined timeout and the PC goes to sleep.
System: Kodi 19.4 / 64 Bit Win10 21H2
Bye!

// do something, e.g. play music
