Overview
The in-built PowerScheduler takes care of all power operations for your MediaPortal computer, e.g. wakes up the system when a recording is due and puts it in a power-saving state (S3 or S4) after the recording is finished.
PowerScheduler consists of two different plugins:
- a server plugin for the TV Server
- a client plugin for each MediaPortal client
PowerScheduler can be used in all MediaPortal configurations
- Single-seat (MediaPortal client and TV-Server on the same machine)
- Client only
- TV-Server only
Combinations of the above are supported, e.g. a single-seat system with remote clients
