    Turn off/power down touchscreen

    I don't make any use of the Touch's touchscreen for visual or control purposes so was wondering wehether there is a way to turn it off (as opposed to just dimming it, which is what the software setting to Off does). My reasons are not related to audio, but rather to the fact that I'd like to keep the Touch plugged in 24/7 (albeit in off mode when not in use). I've noticed that the software setting simply causes the screen to go blank and dim, but in a dark room it's clearly not off and is thus annoying when watching TV etc.

    Have you tried Triode's "Display Off" screensaver? Set it as your screensaver when off (or any other state you'd like).

    No, you'll find it under 3rd party apps in the Touch menu.

    Possible adaptation

    Would it be possible to add the option to disable the display in a certain period if there's no activity. Just as the
    Autodim Display for the squeezebox 3 did...
