Hi pompase,

is there any posibility to add the MAC Adress hardcoded.
If I turn off the TV, the MVP gets powerless.

Thanks
Alex

That won't help. If you unplug the MVP, it looses the dongle with the WOL code...
(Dongle is stored in RAM)

The dongle comes from the attic, vdr is in the livingroom and the mvp in my bedroom (all powerless). :-)

hello hondansx,
this would require, that each one of you has to build a dongle of its own. As I already mentioned once, it is neccessary for the mvp to get the mac address from the already running vdr server, while booting for the first time. as my mvp is started only once without removing the power again this is a suitable solution.
As hardcoding the mac adress is a very bad thing I have not found another solution to get the mac address. In addition to that entering the mac is not so easy, therefore finding the mac address of the vdr automatically is a very userfriednly solution.
