No matter how I power this stick off, the only way to get it to power back on is to unplug the power chord. Anyone else having this problem? It took the latest update, but that didn't fix the issue. Can you put these sticks into sleep mode?

you can change in powerkey definitions
also you could plug in your ir extender and see if power on works with ir command

Already tried those suggestions, and they don't work.
In power key definitions when you use suspend or shutdown I get the same results. The other option is restart, and I don't want that.
Tried ir extender with same results.
So, no sleep mode?

suspend is sleep

Yes, But, suspend is working exactly like shutdown, and not like a sleep mode.

Well, not mine. I've been playing with the suspend mode, and it doesn't work like a sleep mode. I've got to unplug the stick every time to get it to power on again.
Oh well, I guess I'm going to have to, somehow, get the wife to stop using the power button.

Version 4.0.496, updated 01/26/2021
As for a reset, I'll put that off for now. Maybe a Sat/Sunday thing during our snowstorm.

Did both the soft then hard resets, and made no difference whatsoever, so I've got to unplug this thing every time I want to use it. Plus I've noticed the remote seems to stop working in both ir or bluetooth mode, but wait 5 to 10 seconds and works again for awhile. These 2 issues are annoying, but I'm impressed with the picture quality while watching my iptv service.

I did the hard reset again about 5 hours ago and this vidstick is working way better especially in ir mode. It will now come on without having to unplug it, when using suspend or shutdown. Now I've got to go knock on some wood.
