Just a follow up from my perspective: I migrated to ReallyPreventStandby from SvrPowerControl on 7.5.3 and latest Mac OS X (iMac, Intel).
It does work! Thanks for the update. It took half a day to work properly, similarly to the problem danco posted - there seem to be magic healing hands under the hood of OS X ;-) Although ReallyPreventStandby in its current state does what I need, I am wondering why you took the route developing a standalone app? As posted previously here: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=592731&postcount=1507, an AppleScript or shell command using pmset should have been fine as well. You could easily read out the current users energy settings and save these, disallow sleep mode while playback (/usr/bin/pmset force sleep 0) and reset energy settings to saved values while players are idle. It's also possible to control display sleep using pmset. While evaluating ReallyPreventStandby I noticed that TimeMachine actually uses this same technique. Just hit pmset -g in the terminal while TimeMachine is running and you'll see that the backup process has imposed a "sleep 0" on the energy settings. Just an idea... -- -tm- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -tm-'s Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=37094 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
