Belini Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 I need to prevent the shutdown of the video only when the script is open, anyone know how to disable and enable this function in windows 7 using Autoit? https://www.dropbox.com/s/cb95cspdds5ws9x/Figura1.jpg My Codes: Virtual Key Code UDF: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/138246-virtual-key-code-udf/ GuiSplashTextOn.au3: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/143542-guisplashtexton-udf/ Menu versions of Autoit: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/137435-menu-versions-of-autoit/#entry962011 Selects first folder of letters: ]http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/144780-select-folders-by-letter/#entry1021708/spoiler] List files and folders with long addresses.: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/144910-list-files-and-folders-with-long-addresses/#entry102 2926 Program JUKEBOX made in Autoit:some functions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJ2tC2fD5Qs Navigation to search:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lblwOFIbgtQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 You can change this setting using PowerCfg.exe -CHANGE, -X Modifies a setting value in the current power scheme. Usage: POWERCFG -X <SETTING> <VALUE> <SETTING> Specifies one of the following options: -monitor-timeout-ac <minutes> -monitor-timeout-dc <minutes> -disk-timeout-ac <minutes> -disk-timeout-dc <minutes> -standby-timeout-ac <minutes> -standby-timeout-dc <minutes> -hibernate-timeout-ac <minutes> -hibernate-timeout-dc <minutes> Example: POWERCFG -Change -monitor-timeout-ac 5 Use "Run("powercfg.exe -Change -monitor-timeout-ac 5")" to change the time before the monitor gets shut off to 5 minutes when the computer is on AC power. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

BrewManNH Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) That was an example, the quoted part shows you what you need to use for when it's on battery (DC).Although, this might be a better method if you want it for just the script you're currently running.#include <WINAPIEx.au3> _WinAPI_SetThreadExecutionState(BitOr($ES_CONTINUOUS, $ES_DISPLAY_REQUIRED))EDIT: The WINAPIEx.au3 is included in AutoIt version 3.3.9.4 (beta), or you can download it from if you're running a prior version.

UEZ Posted February 27, 2013 Share Posted February 27, 2013 (edited) @Belini: Look at WinAPIEx.au3 for _WinAPI_SetThreadExecutionState() function. Br, UEZ PS: BrewManNH was faster.
