anti-standby plugin : auto-start
Hello,
something that shouldn't be hard to do, yet immensely valuable as far as I'm concerned. The anti-standby plugin (which prevents the computer going to sleep) needs to be restarted each time JD restarts. Could an option to leave it always active be implemented ? (as long as JD is active of course) In fact I'm even wondering what purpose the fact that it deactivates after each JD restart, this serve... that would prevent me from forgetting to activate it & therefore the computer going to sleep in the middle of a download. Thanks. Last edited by whismerhill; 14.11.2010 at 16:42. Reason: changed "sleep" => "standby" |

Check Settings -> Hosts & Addons -> Extensions -> JD antistandby (the settings for this).
There should be a check box to select activate it once or activate it permanently. |

hum three things :
-first & foremost I'm sorry I just noticed this is a svn feature, not public yet if you would move this to the correct subforum that would be nice. thank you. -two,this check box is not there as far as I can see I even installed jdownloader on another computer & updated to nightly to check. -three, this plugin also prevents the screen from going into stand by I feel like this should be an option. if it can help maybe devs can take a look at this (source code included) : **External links are only visible to Support Staff****External links are only visible to Support Staff** it's what I use in place Jdownloader anti-standby at the moment. |

I apologize, the check box is for JD Shutdown (Shutdown once).
1) JD anti-standby would be a silly name if it did not prevent standby. 2) Once JD anti-standby is enabled, go to the Addons menu and select the settings for JD anti-standby. Set it on. It should stay on between sessions, unless there is a problem with your computer. |

I just felt like letting the screen powered ON all the time while some users probably don't need it is just a waste of power. Quote:
& the other an XP 32 with a fresh install of Jdownloader & update to nightly & an updated Java. both don't keep the setting upon jdownloader restart (the check located in the Addons menu of the main interface) |

You can turn off the monitor manually when you leave the computer alone (there should be a button).
If you are using Nightly, that is allowed to be broken. Problems with Nightly that do not exist in Stable belong in the Nightly Forum. Please upload a log. I can then submit a bug ticket. |

no joke ... yeah of course it is. and you know what? I actually don't care at all since I'm using something else which 100% suits me enough (insomnia posted earlier) I'm not doing this for myself. Just for the sake of pointing out bits & pieces which I feel could be corrected/improved upon so as to help make Jdownloader better.Now if I should just shut up, no problem, just say so. Quote:
I am very and utterly sorry about this. I made a mistake, shall I repost/reformulate the whole thing or can a moderator move the thing to the nightly forum ? I'll do that. however since it doesn't log the activation of the addon I doubt it's really that useful ... EDIT: I'll need more time, I watched the logs and ... well ... let's just say that I'll do that on a virtual machine , it'll be better for security purposes.
