System going back into Standby

Post by FunkyMunkey »

Hi,

I'm using the latest version of EventGhost with my Windows 7 MediaPortal setup and a Harmony 885 cloning a Hama remote.

I've had a search of the forum, and I can't find the answer I'm looking for. I'm getting some very frustrating behaviour whereby when I wake the PC from standby using the remote, it immediately goes back to sleep again. The macro is set up thus:

Code: Select all

<EventGhost Version="1572" Guid="{20E5C91D-5094-463E-96F1-5CC767A13019}" Time="1345362250.4">
    <Autostart Name="Autostart">
        <Plugin Identifier="Auvisio" Guid="{96F3D335-C941-4F4E-A196-AAD190E3E255}" File="Auvisio">
            gAIpLg==
        </Plugin>
        <Plugin Identifier="MediaPortal" Guid="{50B10A24-77AC-4248-85E5-16A04983170E}" File="MediaPortal">
            gAIpLg==
        </Plugin>
    </Autostart>
    <Macro Name="Stand By" Expanded="True">
        <Event Name="Auvisio.Power" />
        <Action>
            EventGhost.FlushEvents()
        </Action>
		<Action>
            System.Standby(False)
        </Action>
And the log says this when when the button is pressed:

Code: Select all

Auvisio.Power
   Stand By
      Stand By
System.Suspend
System.Volume '66.89'
System.Resume
System.ResumeAutomatic
Is this happening due to the System.ResumeAutomatic command? If so, how do I prevent this?

If not, what's causing it?

Thanks

Anyone have any clue about this? It's still happening and getting on my nerves... it's the only thing that doesn't work.

If I clear the logs, sleep using the Windows start menu, then wake it up using the remote, this is what the log says (after the PC goes straight back to sleep and I resume using the keyboard):

Code: Select all

System.Suspend
System.Resume
System.ResumeAutomatic
Auvisio.Power
   Stand By
      Stand By
System.Suspend
System.Volume '66.89'
System.Resume
System.ResumeAutomatic
System.Volume '100.00'
That suggests to me that the commands are being sent twice. Why?

HELP! PLEASE!
