So you need to keep fiddling with the remote every 60 minutes?? :-) On 6 November 2013 16:26, Philip Musyoki <pmusyoki@gmail.com> wrote:
Better still we have TVs that detect ambient movement and can know when no one is watching and go on standby mode. No need to press pesky keys on the remote.

The Sony EX520 has a single PIP button on the remote. This is the phone app version which mimics the real one -----> http://t.co/zU6If6FNjY
The PIP button is the one next to Digital/Analog button.

nice! I ended up hating my first sony coz it was unable to play media from flash disk, seems things have since changed.
I have purposed, to use SONY for any entertainment until further notice. They don't shout from the rooftop but performance does great. Disclaimer: dont work for sony, dont resell, dont know anyone @ $x etc.... just a user.
I miss 2 items especially......
1. Remote button PIP [one touch and not navigating through menu to get to it], switching sound is a nightmare - another process! 2. Idle TV system standby [when you don't touch remote for say 1, 2, 3hrs the TV shuts down on its own] - important when you leave the TV unattended.
