Create a delay option to start UMS when using CPL

Post by Etmoc »

Hello,

I'm using UMS for a long time, and i've got a problem when using it with CPLs.
I explain :
When you're not using CPLs for a long time, they are going in sleep mode. But, when i start my computer (Windows), the CPL take time to wake up, more time than the PC to boot.
So UMS is started, while the network is not "connected".

So UMS is not enable for other devices. I have to stop it, and restart UMS.

Is it possible to add an option that delay the "UMS listener" to start for some (customisable) seconds. This will allow the network to start correctly and UMS to be visible for other devices, after CPL wake up.

I know that i can use the option "start UMS as service" and choose the start method "Automatic (Delayed Start)" but, it would be more effective to add the option directly in UMS.

Thank you for your job. UMS is very usefull and efficient.
