    one time use, sleep timer

    Roku sleep timer: So i set it to 30 minutes, tv does shut off automatic after that 30 minutes. Good. Next morning my Samsung Android finds my other Roku tvs, but not this bedroom tv. I turn on this tv with remote. Still my phone app cannot locate the tv. Finally I walk to back of tv and it finds it. I was only 10' away the first time and did not find, 4 attempts. No idea if sleep timer caused that... 2nd issue/ complaint I would like a change to... An option to use the sleep timer once to go to sleep, and not have it set as a default. When you turn tv back on in the morning, I don't want the sleep timer 30 min. auto, again..... just wanted as going to sleep... Having to set it off in the menu is crazy to do every morning. The non activity off timer is not what we need, just a sleep timer, momentary one use...

    Add Sleep Timer to External Control Protocol

    I'd like to request sleep timer functionality be added to the External Control Protocol. I am currently using ECP keypresses to automate the start of the sleep timer on a Roku TV, however I worry that eventually something will change with the UI that will break it. Ideally, implementation would be an HTTP POST to /sleep/<DURATION> (in minutes) or something similar. This could be very useful to anyone who runs automation scripts before going to bed and tend to fall asleep with the TV on. Thanks for your hard work on a great product!
