Prevent Shut Down or Stand By whilst encoding

Maybe there is this feature but i couldn't find it.

Seems like you should be able to set MC to prevent Sleep or Standby whilst encoding?

I'm bumping this because i still think it's a really good idea.

I had an encode fail yesterday, couldn't work out how it happened, and then i realised it went in to standby whilst encoding which somehow caused an error 14

We're still doing this right?

You didn't crash the server to delete the bit where you said you would? :D

What is slightly surprising to me is that sometimes after you power up again it just continues as if nothing went wrong, and sometimes it completely borks it.
