Any way to turn off tv when the screen goes to sleep in windows power management?

[sonuyos]

I have my Turn Off Display set for 3 mins, and then after 3 mins the screen goes to sleep, but the problem is that the LG Screensaver kicks in, what I want is that when the screen goes to sleep, it just shut down and when the mouse is moved that time the screen turns back on.

I can use screensaver mode? Yes, but i am using the screensaver mode at 1min interval after which i want the screen to go into sleep (after 15min) and tv to turn off.

Hi there,

If I understand you correctly you are looking for what is already a core functionality in LGTV companion. If the display does not shutdown/power off when your PC turn off the displays something is not working as expected. Can you please enable the logging function in the settings for the app, then upload the log here or elsewhere and paste a link so I can take a look please. Preferrrably the entire log.

Kind regards Jörgen

Hi @tonycassara, is the issue that the app does not automatically turn on your TV, turn off your TV, or both? From the log it looks like both.

If so, you might want to start by double checking the IP and the MAC-address. Also, I assume you have followed the setup guide in the readme, but can you please confirm you have done this:

Ensure that the TV can be woken via the network. For the CX line of displays this is accomplished by navigating to Settings (cog button on remote)->All Settings->Connection->Mobile Connection Management->TV On with Mobile, and then enable 'Turn On via Wi-Fi'. For C1 and C2 it's All Settings->General->Devices->External Devices->TV On With Mobile->Turn on via Wi-Fi Then have a look at these troubleshooting steps:

When connecting the TV via Wi-Fi it seems some users must enable "Quickstart+" and disable "HDD Eco mode" to avoid the NIC becoming inactive. (physical network cable does not seem to need this) Try reconfiguring the device and use one of the other wake-on-lan network options, primarily use option two, connect using an IP adress but it's worth testing the other. Ensure the network is not dropping WOL-broadcasts.

Let me know if none of the above helps

@JPersson77 oh my gosh soooo I forgot I changed the wifi password and didn't update the TV's password... duh. It works great now! Thank you for such an awesome tool!
