Why is this functionality now enabled on the EU models? Network standby works but it uses over 30 watts of power while in standby and the unit stays warm to the touch the whole time. My old Yamaha amp from 6-7 years ago supported wake on lan and used virtually no power while in standby.
Hi, I have great news guys, after a few days dealing with this issue (enabling Network standby: ON for European devices) I found the solution
This is what you need to do:
Download MyAv app on an Android device.
Link your STR-DN1080
Go to Settings/Advance settings
Activate the option "Power this device up when MyAV starts (WOL)"
It’s working now, can’t believe it!
This is awesome as I was quite disappointed but now I have my AV fully working as desired.
Thanks to a random guy who shared this info on another forum. You made my day!
Please let me know if it works for you too.
I can wake up my AV from Spotify when streaming starts while it is in standby, I hope this helps to all the Sony fans
Cheers,
Juanjo
@Jlm21467 as I replied to your identical post on the Sony dev forum:
"Hi. It's basically what my app StrRemote Pro does. However, even though MyAV calls it "WOL", it's not. It's actually Network Standby."
I think it also then makes the amp use a constant 30w of power, even when in standby mode!
I live in europe, and mine actually did work with WOL for a while, but suddently stopped working after i tried the songpal app.
i tried resetting, to get it back.
but didnt work. “Strange”
