Hi Jim. Mine does this and not just over night. I put mine on one evening at around 7 and it turned itself off about 4 hours later. Strange really.

Hi Darran and all who gave suggestions for the subject line problem. I'll wait to get sighted assistance and see if the standby mode is enabled or not. thanks to all.

Jim, when does it happen? Is it purely at night or is it through the day as well. I know that Sky sometime ago introduced a stand-by mode that kicks into action around 1am unless the box is in use. I think the system determines this by whether or not you've changed station or something in the previous 15 minutes. If you haven't, the box thinks its safe to go into stand-by at 1 each morning. If this is what's happening, don't worry, it can be stopped. You'll need some sighted assistance though to go into the system setup part of the services menu and you should be able to find the stand-by option in there. Simply turn it off and things should be fine from then on in.

Hi, Apologies for the off topic item, but not sure where else to go for some help. My sky box keeps going into stand-by mode for no apparent reason. This as only started in the last couple of weeks, most annoying when trying to record a film. Is this happening to anyone else with a sky box? Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this problem? Any suggestions most appreciated.
