Have a new LG smart TV. The model number is probably irrelevant. Had it 2 weeks and it has switched itself off mid-viewing 4 times now. I'm guessing it's some powersave feature in settings maybe? Should it do this (we are not using the TV remote or wireless pointer just the sky remote)??
Prudie.....I can only watch TV if I am knitting or sewing.....I had no idea when I bought this TV what was happening....then the daughter explained and suggested I choose a pattern with a row of furious knitting every so often... honestly....for the days when you had to get up and turn a clonky knob for your other station......:-)
Mine does that too but flags up a warning just before it shuts down. Something like "You've not moved for 3 hours (lazy mare), so if you don't want me to shutdown, press ..."
Thanks all, i'll look at settings. Tomorrow probably. Yes those were the days gness. Anyone remember how futuristic it was to have a TV you could control from a box on the armchair connected by lead to the TV - the precursors of remotes.
We've got a sort of sleep control feature on ours, a little box comes on the screen when it's been on for 4 hours, you have to click the remote to keep it active.
Our LG does the same, I think its a feature you can just turn off, Im just not sure how to do it. we just touch the volume control to keep it on, just press any button when the warning box comes up that it will shut down in one minute.
