Windows build: automatically set wake timer for scheduled DVR recordings (Emby does what Plex don't)

Windows builds of Emby are now able to wake up the server from standby for scheduled DVR recording.

When you schedule a recording, the Emby server automatically sets a wake timer for that time. Should the system happen to be in standby when it’s time for the recording, Emby will wake up Windows and set the machine into Away-Mode for the duration of the recording.

In case the devs don’t know how this works, there’s an open source tool (link) that you’d might take a look at. The code is pretty straight forward.
