avoiding sleep mode

But to get out of this dimmed screen mode, I need to play a video, then stop the video. Now my screen is correctly lit again.

I use CEC since I use my tv remote so I do not want to disable it. How to fix this?

Count me as having the same issue. I have turned off the screensaver (found in settings appearance from memory) but, leaving the pi with the TV off for long periods, I lose it off the network, cant ssh into either, and then when i go to the TV, through xbian interface which I eventually get xbian up via CEC (samsung TV) remote but I find that the network is lost - no ip address - only reboot cures this issue. Very frustrating at the moment. I have tried many different things, and I can't seem to get it from not 'sleeping' if that indeed is what it is doing.

Hi

I have the exact same problem....any news how to fix this?

My pi gos to "sleep" or at least get black and i cant connect to it. The only way to get it to run properly again is to reboot.

I have two rpi with xbian and i am having the same problem with both of them.

Pleas help

Have you looked in the "secret" XBMC option?

System-> System -> Input Devices -> Peripherals -> CEC

Someone with this issue post dmesg to pastebin if they can, it may have more relevant information about what process is dying than the xbmc log.

FYI -> Had a problem here to with v1 B1 on Rpi. When playing radio stream the Rpi stopped the stream after about 15 min. Even with the tv being switched on. I disabled the sleep mode in Confluence theme and the problem was gone. Bit strange as the sleepmode there was set on 3 min. But it worked for me.
