The guy said the music channels all go into this mode to prevent burn in on the TV. I know that is BS. Then he tells my my TV is sending the sleep signal to the Cable Box to to save the screen on the TV. Said there were HDMI ports that the TV would not send that signal. I call BS again. He changed the HDMI port the cable box is on and said to call him if it happens again and he would replace the Cable Box. Before the tech came out a higher up server tech told me there is a setting on the box to turn the inactivity thing off and the tech would show me where it was. He couldn't find it, then told me in 8 years he had never had anyone complain about the inactivity thing. Guess I will be calling a getting a new cable box.
Guess I am going to have to check into if replacing the umbilical cable to my TV. I've had it for 30 years. Well except for the 3 months I shut it off and my Mom asked me to turn it back on because cable had more religious channels. It's all the 700 Club's fault!
