OK guys, thanks for the responses and here goes:
The receiver is never really turned off from tv1 and this obviously happens on both 1&2.
Not aware of 'auto-tune' on a 322 and there is no inactivity setting option like on my 722
yep, no way to set a 'timer' on this 322 either
whatchel...unsure of what you are saying: If it is possible then just make 1 that has all the chs that usually run
BB. Then call that up whenever you want to page thru it.
What is BB?
(TV2 my wife turns on when she hits the hay and TV1 is rarely used but this screensaver thingy is an irritation of the day

)
Thanks for your patience in this matter.
