Support for modern/Connected standby?

Open darthbator opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

OS: Windows 10 version 1909

GPMDP Version: 4.7.1

Issue Descriptions: I've noticed that GPMD doesn't seem to support connected standby (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/device-experiences/modern-standby). There seems to be an option to stop all sleep modes but that's not ideal with how modern standby is implemented in windows itself.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Use any windows device that supports connected standby (basically any tablet or hybrid device).
  2. Start playing some music! Rock out!
  3. Enter connected standby either by allowing the sleep timer to run out or by pressing the power button.
  4. Music stops, no more rocking.

Expectations I would expect music to continue playing in the connected standby state. I know most native windows platform apps appear to implement this. Chrome appears to be able to do it as well (via a -enable-exclusive-audio launch flag). I'm sort of shoddy with web stuff so I figured I would make a bug for this and ask how much trouble it would be to get this working as more windows devices are implementing this type of sleep mode.
