Mezzmo prevents sleep?

[raystlin]

I've had exactly the same problem and already attempted playing with the sleep settings
And 1 min works but longer delays such as 30 mins+ do not.

It's not really an option to go with 1 min, so are there any plans to address this issue?

It's quite a pain to have to manually put pc to sleep.....

Is your Windows Media Player running? If it is, then it'll talk to Mezzmo and prevent the PC from going to sleep. Or, if you have any other DLNA clients running/turned on, then any of them will talk to Mezzmo from time to time and this may prevent sleep as well.

nothing else running on the server (it's just a server, not used as media centre),
All other devices are off - the tv's are off at standby would that cause a problem?

If you have a Sony TV, these are known to talk to media servers even in standby mode.

To see what's happening for sure, we'll need to see the logs. So, please turn on logging (see this thread: http://forum.conceiva.com/showthread...nostic-logging) then leave your PC running as you normally would and wait until whenever your sleep timeout is set to kick off. Once that's hit and the PC is not sleeping, stop the server and send the logs to support (at) conceiva (dot) com and we'll investigate.

It was definitely the Mezzmo service keeping the PC awake (turned everything else off),
but it's sorted now - under Power Options goto Change Advanced Power Settings
then open the Sleep entry in the tree and set Allow Wake Timers to Disable.

It's possible that this could be also related to the hibernation issue that we just fixed. If you'd like to try a patch of the server (to be applied on top of v2.4), please send a message to support (at) conceiva (dot) com and we'll send it to you to try. It may let your PC go to sleep without tweaking those Advanced settings.
