That sounds like a message from the TV rather than Q?

I am just another Sky customer and my views are my own even if you don't like the answers

Was this definitely the SKY Q box & not the TV itself.

 

Many TVs have built in timers far shorter than the SKY Box & because people use the SKY Q box to change channels etc the TV may think no one is watching due to the lack of interaction.

 

My TV often comes up with a message warning it will power off.

 

Thus check the settings on the TV & when the message pops up warning of a shutdown use the Volume control buttons (a brief press up and down) to see if that stops the switch off.
