I started an album playing with SBS and let it play through to the end. After it finished and then after the default 20 minute ReallyPreventStandby idle-grace period, PleaseSleep put the system under.
So...it seems to be working for me, at least. If you can't get ReallyPreventStandby to keep the system awake on its own, and since you're using PleaseSleep, you might try configuring PleaseSleep's "force sleep unless" feature to keep track of sleep-inhibit. -- gharris999 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ gharris999's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=115 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=48521 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
