By "hard boot" you mean removing power from the device or using the 
reboot menu option?

No. I need to do that fairly rarely.

I don't know.

Recently when my MVP became unresponsive to the remote (sometimes the 
power button will successfully cycle the power LED (suggesting that 
interrupt handlers are still working), but the mvpmc UI remains stuck), 
I left it running, rather than pulling the power cord as I usually do in 
that situation. I telneted to the box and it wouldn't respond for 
several minutes until it did a warm restart (either on its own, or the 
remote control power button keypress finally got processed) and then it 
let me in. So either it was more than just the mvpmc process that was 
stuck, or that process was chewing up all the CPU. I then did a 'reboot' 
from the command line to make sure things were reset, and it ran fine after.

I've always left my MVP powered up in standby.
