    Default Sleep Timer and Remote off

    I have not seen a sleep timer on this request yet but that sure would be nice or even an auto off after no activity after, say, 3 hours.

    Also a push and hold button on the remote to shut off the boxee box would be nice.

    In theory one could construct an app that could do that:

    Definitely, I'd love both features. I always had a shutdown timer set on XBMC.

    Always helps if the wife forgets to turn off the box, or if you don't want to get up just to turn it off.

    My dad would love the on/off button on the remote. He once returned a DVD player b/c the remote didn't have a on/off feature on the remote.

    Bumping this suggestion. Since the boxee is RF my harmony remote does not sleep/turn it off when switching. Would be nice to have a "sleep after x minutes/hours" option in settings so its not constantly running.
