I was looking for some software to make my gbpvr server goto sleep from the command line and stumbled on some audio switching software that might be useful for some of you.
I remembered at one point someone said they had two sound cards and wanted to be able to change between them easily so one could be hooked up the the reviver for surround sound and the other to headphones for night time listing.

supports command line usage so it could be called as a custom task in gbpvr. I was looking a the guys sleep / shutdown / log off tool and it gets great reviews so I figure this tool is probably good as well.

my quick look over doesn't indicate that this supports command line but it does support hot keys for switching so you could change with either you keyboard or remote if you used hip or something similar. This was linked to form the previous software's page and looks nice.
On a side note does any one know of a way to make windows run a command on resume form sleep so I could wake my gbpvr server before gbpvr starts up. It would be nice to only wake it when its needed instead of waking at a specific time everyday and avoid the mad dash to wake up the server on weekends when my wife turns on the client and the servers not up.
