I would try restoring to an earlier date when you know that it was not dropping frames. If that doesn’t work then it might be hardware related.

The other problem with directed traffic is that if the computer does manage to stay asleep long enough then the router does not direct the traffic to it anymore and thus it never recieves the mesasge to wake up.

The short answer is likely no, you will need to setup wake-on-lan in order to remotely wake up the HTPC. This is another advantage of the extender is that it will send a WOL packet to insure that the host PC is on.

Jeam – just wanted to clarify: are you 1: wanting to be able to click record and have WMC record the entire program that you are viewing from the moment you started watching or 2: are you simply curious if WMC will let you pause/rewind live TV.

WMC does have a live TV buffer that is built in (default is 30 min however this can be changed by a reg hack). This would I think let you do what you want to do. That is start watching a program and then rewind it some to rewatch what was just aired.

What aaron is referring to is the inability for WMC to create a recording from the live TV buffer. That is to start watching a show and then press record and have WMC record everthing to recorded TV from the moment you begin watching. WMC will only record from the moment you press record, it discards the part that was already recorded to the live TV buffer.

Just wanted to make sure that we were talking about the same thing…
