MM5 enters sleep mode when streaming [#15089]

[Blackcat12]

Hi - I am using the latest build 2120 and have encountered instances where the Windows 10 PC enters sleep mode while stream to my receiver. I have verified in my Win10 power management settings that prevent idling to sleep when streaming is set. I looked for an option in MediaMonkey 5 to disable entering sleep mode when streaming, but was unsuccessfully. Is there a flag somewhere that I am missing?

Thanks for reporting,

BTW: I suppose that MM5 was the control point and it was playing a music from a third party server to a third party receiver, right?
i.e. what was the server and the receiver?
thx.

Hi Ludek,
I am playing with MM5 on my Win10 PC to a Yamaha receiver. The media files are stored on the same PC as MM5, so no separate server.

Thanks!

Hi,
Can you give us exact steps how you use and initiate Streaming from/to Yamaha?

Hi Peke,
I am using MM5 as the player /server. The files and MM5 reside on the same PC. From MM5 on my PC, I am just right clicking on the play icon, and selecting 'Play to', then selecting my Yamaha receiver from the list of devices shown. For me, the PC is going into sleep mode after about 40 minutes.

I am not sure if it helps, but I looked at my event log for this and nothing unusual. Just a confirmation.

The system is entering sleep.
Sleep reason: System Idle

OK, please re-test in 2121 (once is available) and report back, I've made a fix and verified that it works for me (on Win 10).

Hi,
I can confirm that it also works for me on 2122 new build should be soon released, so that you can also confirm.

Hi Ludek and Peke - I have retested with 2123 and can confirm that it is indeed working for me as well.

Thanks!
