Fix the sleep mode. This is insane.

We pay way too much money to have you dictate how long I can leave my TV on. I need it on to sleep. Fix this.  I will cancel service with you.  I cannot believe this is even an issue.

I can appreciate where you are coming from with the need for the TV noise to sleep. Unfortunately, while you can change power saving settings, after four hours of inactivity the cable box from go into nap mode and there is not a way to fully disable that feature. We truly appreciate your business and would hate to see you leave due to this feature.

@XfinityBillie  What is the difference between On and Off on the Power setting?  Put another way what is Nap mode?

Sorry, but still not clear to me.  My X1 boxes say they will go to Sleep after 4 hours when the Power Saver is On.  So, what happens after four hours when that setting is On or when it is Off?
