You're welcome.

Sidenote:  Roku made a very poor firmware engineering decision when they decided to include this particular new "Auto power savings" setting/functionality in RokuOS 10.5+ for the new models, and enable it by default - essentially they are configuring devices out of the box to be unstable, incompatible, and problematic, which is the exact wrong experience they want, especially for new users.  @RokuDanny-R  @RokuKariza-D  @RokuMary-F et al
