Thanks. Short answer: No. Plugins don't "inject" any code onto the player. They just modify the behavior of the server. So, when the server goes away (shuts down / suspends / etc.) the plugin functionality goes away too.
If you can't live without your weather display, you could consider (depending on your server hardware and operating system) various power saving schemes, e.g. hard disk spin-down, cpu throttling, etc. -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=60397 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
