Forgive me for sounding stupid or needing glasses but I don't have a 'Menu' on my Bravia remote. I have an 'Options' and a 'Home" but I cant find a path to the ECO settings from any button!!! Will someone please point out how dumb I am and tell me how.

The I-manual tells you what you can do - BUT NOT HOW TO DO IT!

Sorry Guys for sounding techy ... feeling very frustrated right now.

Try this - it has just worked for me...

press home on the remote>scroll left to settings>select system settings>down to eco>select>down to idle tv standby>select>adjust to 'off'. Use return button to get back to home screen.

Hope that helps.

Hello Both,

I think there are 2 seperate issues here although I may be wrong.

1. Idle TV standby

This means that if the TV set is left for some time the TV st switches off into standby unless a button is pressed.

Depending on model this is different but here are 2 versions

This can be solved by

1. press "Menu" or "Home" on remote (Depending on type)

2. Go down to settings

3. Go to ECO Menu

4. Idle TV stand by set to off (other settings 1Hr/2Hr/3Hr)

1. Press "HOME" on the remote

2. Scroll left to settings

3. select system settings

4. down to eco >select>

5. Down to idle tv standby>select>

6. adjust to 'off'.

7. Use return button to get back to home screen.

Second Issue

2. TV does not power down (on or stand by only)

When software upgrades need to be done, they are usually done overnight to avoid any problems with the set during normal viewing (theoretically).

If the TV sets are turned off overnight then any software upgrades cannot be processed.

When the TV set is in standby the power consumption is <1W, but it is still higher than total power off and this has been fed back Sony.

Hope this helps.

This worked for my W809C:

Press home on the remote
Scroll down ( through the you tube stuff, apps etc) to the settings icon

Select settings

Scroll right to 'Power'

Select power, then Eco then Idle TV Standby & switch off or change the timing.

Hope this works for you.

To cancel "idle standby" for TV Model: KDL-43W756C

1) Handset "HOME"

2) Scroll down to "Settings" >Press "Select/Enter" (centre of wheel)

3) Scroll across to "Power" >Press "Select/Enter"

4) You will see "Power" and "Eco" >Press "Select/Enter"

5) Scroll up or down to "Idle TV standby" >Press "Select/Enter"

6) Scroll up or down to "Off" >Press "Select/Enter"

Go back to watching your TV

According to the manual:

If you switch off the TV and switch it on again, “Sleep Timer” is reset to “Off.”

Cheers

For me it worked by using uper button at the same time on/off button then unplugged the power cable all together. It works !!!

It has drive me crazy as I try it all the options which are shown in here.

I guess cut all the power and restart always works.

All auto sleep/ECO settings are disabled, turned off, but if I pause a streaming playback, then after 5 mins, the TV goes to standby. On restart, I have to navigate to load the app and find and restart the stream all over, nightmare! Bravia XR 55A80K model. with latest auto-software installed.

@TandemBrian

Double check these settings: The TV turns off automatically
