January 27, 20233 yr Ok I feel dumb for asking this but here goes! Just got a new Android TV. I tend to fall asleep while watching it at night and want it to switch off automatically after a set amount of time. The menu system shows two choices: Standby Timer (3hr/4hr/5hr/6hr) Sleep Timer (15min/30min/1hr/2hr/3hr/4hr) Whats the difference? The documentation isn't clear. Thanks much.
January 27, 20233 yr Administrators Standby= some form of energy saver mode? Sleep timer is exactly what you are asking for. My old set had that.

Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

January 27, 20233 yr For some reason it made me think of MSFS active pause etc. I also like to fall asleep in front of the TV sometimes, but if I knew it was going to switch off it might keep me awake, or wake me up when it does. But overall seems a good idea.
