Sky Box going to stand by

    I've been caught out a couple of times in the past few week when I set my DVR to record movies in the early hours from my standard Sky Box using Autoplay on the Sky box.

    Problem is that the Sky box is automatically going into standby during the night & I'm recording a blank screen.

    Is it possible to switch off the auto standby feature??

    Thanks.

    If you regularly watch TV in the early hours of the morning it is possible to switch off Auto Standby:

    1. Press services on your Sky remote control.
    2. Highlight Auto Standby and press select.
    3. Highlight Enable Auto Standby and set it to OFF.
    4. Highlight Save New Settings and press select.
    5. Press sky to return to normal viewing.
