Roku turns my TV off when paused

My Roku Express 4K+ turns off my TV if it's paused more than 10-15 minutes. How do I turn that feature off?

Re: Roku turns my TV off when paused

I don’t think there’s any software setting on the Roku regarding the TV’s power function.  Maybe you should check the settings on your TV set.  Most TV sets feature a Sleep Mode function.

Try disabling the Roku Express 4k+ power savings feature.

Re: Roku turns my TV off when paused

Honestly, the OP should’ve been more specific.  I find it funny that the initial post states that the Roku turns off the TV after certain minutes.
