I have an Alienware M18xR2 with Windows 8. Power Profile is set to Balanced. I've changed the "Multimedia -> when sharing video" settings to "Prevent idling to sleep" but it doesn't work. After 30 minutes my laptop goes to sleep and the other users of my LAN get disconnected.
I want my laptop to sleep if it isn't being used but not when someone is watching video files of TV I've recorded.
Is there any way I can make my laptop stay awake while other users are watching video files I am sharing?
cheers
