Wake functionality popping up dialog box

[slayer]

Hi

I have a wake.cmd script that runs when the server either powers on or wakes from hibernate.

However, a pop-up box saying "Wake detected, executing wake.cmd" dialog pops up, and prevents full execution of the script (essentially restarting GBPVR). When I click OK, it goes away and the script can carry on as normal, restarting GBPVR successfully

How do I prevent this dialog box from popping up?

cheers,

Which commands are in your wake.cmd?
Maybe you can try: start <command>

Hi

Its not so much whats in the wake.cmd, its GBPVR's response to the wake event - it just pops up an unnecessary dialog box on the screen saying it has detected the wake event. I want to know if there is a switch to disable that.

Can post a screenshot of the message? I cant find the code that is generating that exact message.

Will do when I get home, cant access either via terminal services or SSH (to tunnel) from work...

web server bit works a treat tho' :-) - was just showing it to some Media Centre people here at Reuters, they especially loved it when I downloaded the AVI to my work laptop, then stuck in into my SD card to play on the commute home, using my Treo running TCPMP. :p

I am a heretic though Sub - I am still using the M10000 mobo, but with a Plextor M-402U (gives OK DIVX), though still using the WinTV card for remote control functions! lol.

Here is the screenshot of the message (attached). It occurs sometimes in the background, which is OK, but also sometimes in the foreground, which means the keyboard wont work unless I bring gbpvr into focus (not easy when using X-card output).

cheers for any info.

How are you running GBPVRWake? If you run it with a command line parameter, then it goes into debug mode, which will show this message. If its not in debug mode, then you dont get the message.

I run wake.cmd as part of a scheduled task. Maybe this is a mistake? Does GBPVR run it by itself?

my wake.cmd (pretty crude):

Code:

rem echo off
set logfile=c:\logs\wake.log

echo %date% %time% Wake from hibernation > %logfile%

echo %date% %time% Stopping GB-PVR Recording Service... >> %logfile%
net stop "GB-PVR Recording Service" >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 echo Last Command Successful >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% GTR 0 echo Last Command Not successful >> %logfile%

echo %date% %time% Starting GB-PVR Recording Service... >> %logfile%
net start "GB-PVR Recording Service" >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 echo Last Command Successful >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% GTR 0 echo Last Command Not successful >> %logfile%

echo %date% %time% Executing Setcursor.exe >> %logfile%
"C:\Program Files\utils\setcursor.exe"
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 echo Last Command Successful >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% GTR 0 echo Last Command Not successful >> %logfile%

echo %date% %time% Attempting to stop gbpvr if running >> %logfile%
"C:\Program Files\process_util\process.exe" -q gbpvr.exe
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 echo Last Command Successful >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% GTR 0 echo Last Command Not successful >> %logfile%

echo %date% %time% Attempting to start GBPVR >> %logfile%
start c:\progra~1\devnz\gbpvr\gbpvr.exe -topmost
"C:\Program Files\process_util\process.exe" -p gbpvr.exe abovenormal
if %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 echo Last Command Successful >> %logfile%
if %ERRORLEVEL% GTR 0 echo Last Command Not successful >> %logfile%

my screen shots of scheduled task attached.

yes I know my errorlevel logic is crap, but this works, so i havent gotten round to tidying it up.

PS. the wake popup window prevents this script running

What is actually running GBPVRWake.exe on your system?
