No. The lower power mode lets you see from the front panel display if the box is in recording standby mode, either actively recording or waiting for a recording to start. It will have already gone through the boot process from standby mode in that case.
If your viewing habits are fairly predictable then you can set the box to turn on automatically at the same time every day a few minutes before you want to start viewing or with the judicious use of one or more manually set Watch timers get a more flexible pattern of turn on times.
However I recommed that you do put the box back into standby overnight as this allows the box to do its housekeeping etc.
