    Hello wBoop,

    At this time there is no way to set the LED indicators to dictate when your player is currently in standby mode. By design Bluesound players are designed to be always on always ready devices and will automatically go into a low power standby after 15 minutes of being idle.

    However, with that being said, I will bring your feedback forward to our Quality Assurance team for their consideration to include in a future firmware update.

    Regards,

    Hello to all

    I have the same request as wBoop. It will be great to have an indication the player is idle.

    Hope it is to be considered in future update

    Regards

    New here and have had my Vault 2i for a couple days. I agree with Juan and Boop. Would like to see the LED on the front either go to a super dim cycle or off. I've already set it on the dimmest setting. The top light should go off completely. It's somewhat distracting where I have it placed in my entertainment center when watching TV and I don't have a lot of options on placement outside of hiding it.

    It's cool that it's always ready to go but unless I'm actively using it then have the lights go out unless I touch the app or tap the top buttons.

    Hi Sean

    You can disable the LED altogether in Indicator Brightness settings.

    I like to have something telling me it's on when I'm using it. When I shut down my other components it's the only thing lighting up. I could be pretty happy to just isolate the top lights and shut those off.

    If I put it on a switched outlet is it bad for the device to be power cycled regularly?

    Hi,

    I've just taken delivery of a Powernode Edge. I totally agree, it would be useful to have some indication that the unit is in standby/low power mode.

    As it stands there is no way to differentiate between active and standby mode, this is a little irritating tbh.

    Given that the first request was made 3 years ago surely it's high time to implement this.

    Another year on and still no change. Given that the Node may be downloading data but the attached amplifier is switched off this will lead to a great deal of data being downloaded unnecessarily. I know most people are on uncapped data through broadband but the cumulative effect is wasted data and wasted resources through server activity. Surely something should be done to allow users to know when their streamer is wasting their own, and world resources.
