* Wake on Hauppauge r/c activity (don't want to have to press the power button all the time)
* Reliable wake (don't want to miss a recording)
* Fast wake - how long does it take to come out of S3 sleep (average)?
* Wake from internet - any tools to allow a WOL command to be sent over the internet?
* Any way from GB-PVR to tell the PC to go to sleep - rather then using a timer - that way I have more control in the early testing phase.
- wake on Hauppauge remote won't work, you'll need either a MCE remote or some other solution
- reliable wake on the server for recordings is no problem, fast wake also (sub wakes the system some minutes prior to the time a recording has to start), resume speed depends upon what you do standby (STR) wakes up pretty fast (under 10 sec), resume from hibernate depends upon how much RAM you have (thats the reason i don't do it with 2GB RAM, almost 1 minute for my setup)
- wake from internet as HtV said, depends upon your router
- either use the standby option from the system menu (is that again available in PVRX2?) or create a custom task to call psshutdown with the standby option
