What the Hell, I am starting to hate Sky Stream and its turns off after a film or program

This is starting to pea me off now the turn off after you watched a film or program, its now interupting my TV, it does not turn off on Netflex or Prime Video so PLEASE REMOVE IT on your channels, I am griveing ATM and need to hear sound in my flat so need the TV on all the time.
I was just watching Emmerdale on ITV1 and it finished and I went to go and make a cup of tea and came back and the puck was off, It can make it look like it has a fault too, like there something wrong with it, well it acts like it has a bug.
I had Sky Q before so know the Sky Q box does not do this so it can be removed or disabled in next update.

The Sky Q box uses more energy becuase of the big heat sinks it has in it because of its transponders for the dish.

You should not have to remember to move your remote to watch TV uninterupted and you do not always see the notication on the screen and aspecally if you go out of the room at the time.
You can even turn it off on the PS5 console so it don't turn off after 10 mins and on the PC too it can be disabled so it does not turn off after 1 hour, you use the TV all the time so does not make senes why you want it to turn off by itself.
I do not get it, the puck does not get hot like the Sky Q box and Sky Mini boxes do, the puck only gets warm to the touch, Shy Q is hot to the touch so uses more energy.

The big difference between Sky Stream and the devices you mention ... is Sky Stream uses resources on the Sky server to function😟

Stream and Glass are built for use in Europe as well as the UK, and so meet the current EU requirements for power saving.  Unlike 52% of the UK electorate, technology companies operating on an international scale haven't opted out.
