Without direct input via mouse or keyboard, xp goes back to sleep after WOL -kdf Yes, but as I understand the original post, the idea was that the SB would send a WOL packet every 115 (sat) seconds while it was on. It does sound a good idea for an option (an option only, as Macs don't seem to need it) if it is practical. -- Daniel Cohen ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

I believe the WMA stream still goes via SlimServer, even if the SB2 is decoding it? Or are you talking about using Squeezenetwork?

Re: [slim] Re: Wake up slimserver (Wake-on LAN) through wireless network
Quoting getprogs [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Since the new firmware does the WMA ecoding on the SB, my slimserver is going into powersave since not enough activity is generated from the SB to the server (i.e. the server thinks the SB is powered off - SB2 to be exact ;-). This is particularly anoying when listening to Internet radio streams based on WMA, since I then have to do a WOL to the server just to adjust the volume or change to a different stream :-/ Both Windoze and LINUX based boxes must have this problem of entering powersave mode/runlevel whatever with the new firmware! There is a Keep Unswapped Interval setting (for keeping mysql connection alive) in server settings-performance. If you set this to some smaller number (than 30 minutes) it might give enough activity to keep the computer from going into standby as long as the server is running. I haven't tested this, and have suggested a couple times with no feedback. Let us know if that has any effect. -kdf ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Also, WOL requires at least an AT-X power supply and power to the lan card, so some older machines won't be able to support it even if the lan card does. Pre ATX systems? drop them off the support list. It has been a full year since Intel has been pushing BTX as the only solution. Sometimes you have to upgrade to something modestly modern to get the cool new features. Its been years since I saw a new system that had separate LAN cards, they have been built into cheap motherboards for a long tiem. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
