DVR sleep notice
ADVERTS 1
DVR sleep seems to work fine and I'm glad to have it but I'd prefer not to have to hit ok to acknowledge it each time I turn on the DVR after sleep.

yes +1
I can understand the first time but it should not show everytime it goes to sleep it reminds me of the other sat service receivers you have to hit select every morning and evening it gets old quick.

I like saving power and don't even mind a message telling me it woke from sleep when I turn it on but why do I have to hit ok to clear the message?

I hooked up my killawatt the h25 was 11 watts on and 9 watts standby not worth the hassle to hit ok everytime I used it. So I just diabled it. But I would use it if they would disable the nag screen.

I think it's safe to assume an HR24 or HR20 doesn't benefit much from the use of the power saver. Thanks for checking.
