leaving PBO on pause

[tsttm]

hi,

do you people leave your PBO on pause for extended time- ie even over night? If so, any issues with doing this?

I find it much easier to go back to what i was viewing by leaving it on pause. Not only do I not have to navigate through the folder trees, but it stays connected to my network so I don't have to wait for it to re-connect. But I notice the unit is quite warm when running, so i don't know if it's a problem to leave it on pause for extended time. Also, not sure if the power it draws is significant or not while on pause.

Too bad it didn't simply have a sleep mode.

Just curious what you guys do and what you might suggest.

You can do so, but you are putting hours on your box and certainly eating from its life.
If you need to cut down on your navigation you might want to setup share shortcuts

thanks for the info. Sounds like i may be better off spending that extra few minutes to turn it off. too bad it doesn't have some kind of sleep mode...

thanks.
