I changed the menu setting this morning and didn't have a turn-off tonight. Thank you.
Two things are curious about this.
The 3-hour turnoff just started a couple months ago, to the best of my knowledge. But the Sharp is more than 3 years old.
The owner's manual calls this "No operation off" and says that it shuts the power down when there is no operation for 3 hours. I couldn't connect this -- still can't -- to actively watching the thing during what I would call normal operation that happens to extend past 3 hours. Besides, the manual also states that there is an on-screen count-down starting 5 minutes before turn-off. Never happened.
Anyway, thanks again, to everyone who responded, especially cdb.

No operation means no use of the remote. This is probably in case you fall asleep in front of the TV.

Sometimes, say a sudden power outage when a TV is on and running, electronics gear does odd stuff, as in returning the TV to all the original factory default settings. Do you recall having a sudden power outage while the TV was on and running just before this 3-hour shutoff started? It obviously came from the factory that way as the default.
I don't remember one, but it could have happened.
