    If it went into standby when you were watching a recording playback then you wouldn't be able to watch the playback.
    So it won't go into standby when it's playing back a recording.

    You'd need to:

    • Configure your recording playback to go back to live TV at the end of a recording playback.
      • Open MovieList. Menu -> Menu -> "Behavior when a movie reaches the end" - set to "Return to previous service"

    • Set a PowerTimer to put the box into Standby after <n> minutes.
      Menu -> Timers -> Power Timers -> Add
      • Timer type: auto standby
        Sleep delay: what you want (say 030 or 060)
        Repeat type: repeated

    So, the playback ends and you go back to the screen displaying a "watched" channel.
    And it stays there (displaying that channel), even though you have a PowerTimer set to put it into Standby?

    Although when you say "sleep", do you mean not displaying a picture, or actually shutdown?
