According to Miss Vamps we have joined the human race and bought a new Samsung LCD TV, but it wants to switch off after 4 hours, and the sleep and anything else I could find is switched off, is this just something we have to live with?............... :( :(

I hope it was an LED/LCD and not just an LCD one  :-\

My Panasonic TV's have this facility and it is a great function to save power.  Who hasn't left a TV on when going out, or simply becoming involved in something else.  In any case a message comes up just before the auto power turn-off and gives you the chance to override. 

My friends Sky Box also does this. ;)
No, its a ridiculously stupid idea to appease the tree huggers.

And no, if I leave the room, the goggle goes off.

Sky auto standby works fine. Even right in the middle of recording something. ;D

Both my LCD Tv's have this, tho i havent noticed them wanting to turn themselves off, probably because theres so much crap on TV, they are never on long enough  ::)

Ours rarely goes into auto standby either. It has to be left on the same channel for more than a few seconds to do that, apparently. No chance when Mrs. KW has the remote. ::)
