    MceAutoPowerOn utility - Vista MCE AutoPower on HTPC with software way

    Hello

    I made this very useful utility. It's used for automatic planning autopower on
    Home theather PC. You simply add some planned recording in Media Center app and
    this utility will transfer date and time recording
     into AutoPower-On application.
    You may have HTPC computer in standby or hibernate state and computer start before
    recording and will record required show....

    Requirements:

     - Java jre engine, get it on www.java.com - version 1.6.0_11 or newer.
     - AutoPower On application from http://www.lifsoft.com/
     - Windows Vista
     - Computer with ACPI S3 or S4 supported

    Installation:

     - Install jre engine
     - Install AutoPower-On application and test if your computer is ACPI S3 or S4 capable
     - create new directory on local disk, for example: C:\MceAutoPowerOn\

     - copy MceAutoPowerOn.cmd and MceAutoPowerOn.jar files into this directory
     - modify MceAutoPowerOn.cmd and edit path for xml file and dat file
     - run MCE application and made some recording plan
     - close or minimize MCE and run cmd.exe and manually run this file: MceAutoPowerOn.cmd
     - look on cmd screen if there is any error
     - look into AutoPower-On application if there is some recording added
     - now is time to program scheduled tasks
     - add new planned task, run one a day and set repating after 5 minutes
     - set task for run this file: MceAutoPowerOn.cmd
     - Save and have fun.

    Usage: java -jar MceAutoPowerOn.jar "path1" "path2" timeshift
    path1: Path where is located Recordings.xml file - MCE file
    path2: Path where is located task.dat file - AutoPower-On file
    timeshift: timeshift for turning PC on in minutes. Value eg. 45 or -5
    Example: java -jar MceAutoPowerOn.jar "C:\\ProgramData\\Microsoft\\eHome\\Recording\\
    Recordings.xml" "C:\\Users\\Jack\\AppData\\Roaming\\AutoPowerOn\\task.dat" 45
