I have just built a "new" Windows 10 based PC (based on an old HP Server) and one of things I wanted to use was "sleep" overnight, as I generally leave my PC on 24x7 and the electricity costs are astronomical.
I did think that Hybird might be a problem (especially when re-encoding), but I have used Sleep countless times over the last few weeks (at times when Hybrid is idle) and not had a single problem.. In general, I have Hybrid running but not always encoding and sleep works fine... Until today.
Last night I put the PC to sleep and came down this morning to find it running which I thought was odd... So I tried to manaually sleep and nothing happened.
When I looked at the powerconfig requests, I see:
So I killed Hybrid, the PC will now sleep.
I have done a bit more playing and discovered something..
When you first lanch Hybrid the Powerconfig requests show:
When you add/start a job it does this (so clearly Hybrid intentionally blocks sleep which is good):
But when the job finishes, or you kill/remove it, it goes back to this and prevents sleep:
- Are there any settings relating to "sleep" in Hybrid?
- Why is Hybrid blocking sleep when its not doing anything?
- Why has this started now, when I have put the PC in sleep countless times before now?
Is this expected behavour? Do I simply need to kill Hybrid when its not in use? Or is there a reason why this is happening?
As always thanks in advance for any help.
