http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-users</a><br></blockquote></div><br>I could be wrong but.... wake on (external) modem is actually wake on serial...I believe the RI (Ring indicator) line of the serial port gives the signal to wake up. However whether this will actually work with an IR device is a different matter. There was a guy on the "mvpmc" list that was using the video signal (modified with his own circuit) to wake up his box when the MediaMVP was switched on....
<br><br>So in principle it could be done, in practice you'd need the right circuit.<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Steve<br>
