elbow513 0 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Howdy MB3, Firstly I'd like to say how much I love mb3 and the interface with wmc. I love my htpc but it keeps crashing and causing major headaches for my wife and I. Every time we watch a show or movie then put the machine to sleep, it won't work when we wake it up. Sometimes its a black screen that we have to alt+f4 and reopen wmc to do anything. Other times it will be the wmc home screen and the interface is fine but when you try and watch a movie on mb3 or even livetv through wmc, all you get is the blue spinning circle. I have one idea of what it might be... I think it could be a codec issue because after I close wmc to reboot the software, I notice the LAV logo down in the windows taskbar multiple times. When you goto hover over one of the lab buttons, all but one disappear. I was following a bad guide when I set up my htpc and I think I might have messed up my codecs and that could be what's causing my crashes??? Its just weird how the files all play fine though if its a fresh start of wmc... Any tips or help would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebr 14913 Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 This is a common problem with WMC. You need to either exit WMC before putting the machine to sleep or install the MCE Standby tool which was created just for this issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
