I've currently got it set to 10 mins for testing, on the second screen on the nano, the timer has a flash of lightening at the side29445

And then you put the box in standby and after 10 mins nothing happens?

OK, we'll need the debuglogs then.
Activate debuglogs, restart box, set the powertimer and go to standby again. After some 15 mins grab the log and post it please.

It's quite difficult to follow your log, as there is an enormous amount of (auto)timer activity.
First of all: please go to the powertimer and press 'Info': a log should show.

But to sort this issue it would be good to create a clean test environment: i.e. delete all timers and autotimers (you can backup the files first, so they can easily be reinstalled later).
The do the test as described earlier. Make sure no activity is there during the standby-time (also not via the network).

Right can't do this at the moment I'm at work do you mean totally unplug the network cable?
Ps don't know if this is related but my nano and solo are usually on in a morning, even though I have set standby timers for after epg update, only seems to have happened since latest vix update (750).
Pps which is the info button on vu remote it isn't labeled ?

No need to unplug the Ethernet cable
Please one issue per thread.
Info = EPG = Guide (not sure which one applies to the R/C you use)

Just as an update, I tried to restore the settings I had backed up and they wouldn't restore ( Grrr) infact 3 of the last 5 back ups I have done won't restore, and one of the other 3 is a back up that abm doesn't update the channels properly, so I have ended up with a back up from 3 weeks ago with 753 and the timer seemed to have worked through the night (hooray)
