    Hi all
    When using my new HDR 1100s the sound bar switches off periodically. Its a Panasonic soundbar and never any issues before. Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Likely to be a cec issue. Try a CEC removal adapter on the hdmi cable from the Humax to the sound bar.

    Have you disabled AUTO POWER DOWN in SETTINGS on the soundbar?

    I had this problem on both my Humax PVRS (Freesat and Freeview) with my soundbar, the only remedy was to install the adapter linked to above by grahamthompson, this was simple and immediately effective and I've had no further problems for several years.

    Changing settings on TV, soundbar, PVR made no difference it was just the adaptor that worked.

    Thank you all for your replies . Turned the auto power mode to off and that sorted it.just need to remember to turn soundbar off at night.

    If you use a Harmony activity-based remote control you can set it to turn off the soundbar and TV together with one button press.
