Wake up when recording?

[Mikkel]

Quote[/b] (Hugo @ Aug. 11 2004,09:03)]I've turned on "Wake up on rtc alarm" in the bios (power settings) and then it worked.

I am sorry for all my stupid questions, but I am really trying to get this to work on my computer.
1. How do you get to your Bios settings. I tried to restart my computer and enter the settings (holding down DEL), but I had no such choises under my power settings.

2. When I try to schedule a new task, I browse for GBPVR.exe, picks it, and tells it to start when computer starts. Unfortunuatly nothing happens when I turn the comp. to hibernate mode, and the recording is supposed to begin.

Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks,
Mikkel

Wake up on rtc is usually found under the power saving settings "Power Management Setup" and then something like "IRQ Activities" there you can set which irq's should allow the pc to wake up. I enabled irq 8 (rtc).

You do not have to schedule a task for gbpvr to make the pc wake up, but you can test the wake up scheduling a task for calc.exe or something similar.

Thanks for the advice,
I am away on business,  but will try this as soon as I get home.

Sub: this is the coolest program I have ever used! My TV has turned in to a media center piece with all the plugins and the great PVR functionallity.

Hi,

Well, this is great stuff. In my machine it is called something like automatic power up, and I set it to everyday. The time is automatically adjusted by gbpvr. This sometimes even works from a total power down. However from hibernate it is great as start-up is much faster.
BUT I have a problem, the PVR350 video out remains black after wake from hibernate. This is a pity. Earlier in this forum sub pointed me to a discussion at the sagetv forums: this discussion I mean. saying:

Quote[/b] ]What you first want to do is find all the devices you need to restart, for example lets go with TV Tuner class cards. Execute the following command:

devcon find "PCI\VEN_4444"

This will retun a list of devices....then what I did was take the compelete device ID of the device I wanted to restart:

PCI\VEN_4444&DEV_0803&SUBSYS_40000070&REV_01\3&61AAA01&0&50

In a batch file I place the following command:

devcon.exe restart PCI\VEN_4444&DEV_0803&SUBSYS_40000070&REV_01\3&61AAA01&0&50

Now because we are using SageWake....we have to do the following:

Make sure the --terminate="SageApp" flag is set. This will make sure that SageWake kills SageTV when the system goes in to Hibernate/Standby. The reason being is that we can not have any program tied to the device we want to restart running upon bringing the computer out of sleep.

However, I don't see how I can make this restart batchfile run as I don't use sage, and thus not sagewake... Anyone can give me a hint?

Greetz,
