Wii automatically powers off after using WiiMC

[BalancedLineOut]

I’ve been playing audio books from my HDD using WiiMC, and after about 1.5 hours (I’m not positive on the time, but it’s over an hour), it just shuts off. It doesn’t exit, it doesn’t give a code dump, it just powers down. This doesn’t happen if I’m playing games or using Netflix, it’s just in WiiMC.

I’ve noticed that if I pause it every hour (give or take 15 minutes), this doesn’t happen. It’s only when I leave it alone.

Try to disable “Sleep Timer” or “Inactivity Shutdown” in the global settings

It is disabled.

Somehow I missed Inactivity Shutdown. It’s turned off now, and I’ll see if it works tomorrow. However, I was looking through the code and something doesn’t seem right.

menu.cpp

if(WiiSettings.inactivityShutdown > 0 &&

!(wiiAudioOnly() && !wiiIsPaused()) &&

diff_sec(ssTimer, gettime()) > (u32)(WiiSettings.inactivityShutdown*3600))

{

ExitRequested = true;

ShutdownRequested = true;

}

mplayer.c

bool wiiAudioOnly()

{

if(!playing_file || controlledbygui == 2)

return false;



if(mpctx->sh_video || !mpctx->sh_audio || mpctx->eof)

return false;



return true;

}

Maybe this is how it was intended to run, but if it checks that when switching files in a playlist, it will act as if you haven’t played a file in x hours.
