Monitor Turns Off

Hi
I am trying to have my LCD `TV turn off after inactivity so I set it to turn off in the Windows Power Savings Control Panel. The problem is that it turns off at the designated time even if we are watching something. If we hit the space bar it will pop back. I'm in overlay mode and suspect is has something to do with that. Does anyone know how I can make the TV turn off when its suppose to?

Thanks

Re: Monitor Turns Off

I haven't found a good solution as Windows doesn't see any activity. When you're watching TV, you don't use the keyboard or mouse.

I usually just set it for more than an hour on the theory I'll at least switch shows hourly.
