</div>I have a synology ds412 which has settings for sleep times. I saw the same<br>
behavior on the ds412 when trying to watch a recording so I just disabled sleep<br>
mode.<br>
<br>
If you don't mind keeping the QNAP on all the time, then you can find out the<br>
sleep timeout and set up a cron job to run one minute sooner than the sleep<br>
timeout to write and delete a file on the nfs share on the QNAP to keep it from<br>
sleeping.<br>
