When I shut down my XRS4900 with my harmony one remote and turned it back on with the harmony, the box would go directly to live tv. When I switched to the X5, without any settings changes, turn it back on, it has to boot up. Does anyone know if there is a setting that I can't find to allow the X5 to go directly to live tv when initially turning it on?

while watching live tv press menu, settings, configuration, go all the way down and toggle start live tv on boot button.

Neither suggestion worked like the 4900. I went back to the 4900 to see where the settings were in it. "Start Live TV" was off and Powerkey was in suspend mode. I tried the same settings on the X5 but the power wouldn't turn on the box. Is there a way to tell the X5 not to shut down?

red light for off and suspend
blue light for on
just changed mine to suspend and no boot up sequence
but I did have to press live tv button because it only went to home screen
with power off set it goes thru boot up and then right to live tv

When I changed to suspend it did the same. It went to home screen and the live tv button had to be pressed. With the 4900 it skips the home screen and goes directly to live tv. I'm good with that but it would have been nice just to go directly to live tv.

Thanks for your help and RYU too!!
