PinballX quitted after resume from hibernation

[piddu]

Hi all.

I have a little problem: when i turn off my PC i put it in hibernation with PinballX active so when I turn it on, PinballX is already running.

Sometimes (randomly it seems) it happens that after resume from hibernation PinballX is quitted and I have to plug mouse to lunch it.

I'm using Windows 7 x64.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

When reporting a possible bug or error, please submit a copy of the following files so we may quickly assist you:

For PinballX - pinballx.ini and log.txt (Click here for additional information on how to find these files and others that may be required)

It is possible that this may need to be resolved in Windows 7 and not PinballX.proper. Is there any good reason to not shutting down PinballX when you are away from the PC? You may be able to setup a scheduled task to start PinballX on resume from hibernation. Google will be your best friend most likely unless someone else has a recommendation.

I don't want to shutdown pinballx. After resume from hibernation I want it up & ready as I left it. I use this method with other frontends like mediaportal, xbmc, atomic fe, ecc...

For the scheduled task: ok, I can make one task that launches pinballx after resume is triggered, but what happens if pinballx is already running? It quits randomly, not always.

Thanks for the support

I've not specifically added support for hibernation so I can understand if it does not work. I will look at it later.

This is the problem causing PinballX to quit when going to hibernation:

Have you found anything?

I am sure that Tom will look into this further, however, it is probably not as pressing an issue as others he is working on at this time (not speaking for him, mind you). You have a workaround which is to not use hibernation with PinballX if it is causing this issue to occur on your system.
