Update EPG Sleeps during update

Bluethunder · 2014-11-23, 04:12 AM

Hopefully this helps some one out.

For what ever reason, my EPG update takes forever to complete. Over 30 minutes.

After a bit of internet research, I found this little gem:

The first one turns off the sleep mode entirely.
The second one turns the sleep back on to xx minutes.

It does update the #'s in the control panel power options, so here's hoping it does the trick, and lets the computer finish my EPG updates before falling asleep.

Cheers, Joe

UpdateEPG.bat
powercfg -change -standby-timeout-ac 0

and PostUpdateEPG.bat
powercfg -change -standby-timeout-ac xx
