Prevent PC from sleeping
Posted: Fri Oct 18, 2013 4:39 pm
Just switching from ShowAnalyzer to ComSkip, and I notice that ComSkip doesn't appear to block sleep on the HTPC while it's analyzing. Have you considered simply calling SetThreadExecutionState (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows ... s.85).aspx) to inform Windows you'd like the system to remain up? System would be a good choice; away mode is a bit debateable....
Of course, it appears to be enough faster than ShowAnalyzer that this may turn out not to be an issue. If it's set up to start detection while the show is recording, and then can continue detection while I'm watching it (and keep ahead of me) that's not necessarily a problem.
