Mine does this as well. Also, sometimes when you "wake up" the unit, it quickly goes back off (instead of staying on for the amount of time you have set it for). Often a second "wake up" is required. Sometimes these first/second "wake ups" will actually start to execute commands if (while waking up) you hit a button. I've gotten into the habbit of using the hard buttons to wake it up (like Volume) that I know will not execute long macros, etc. My unit has always behaved this way. SJ
