I believe auto-off is the closest but that closes PTVL i believe. Perhaps you could have a "safe channel" that you set it on that doesn't have streaming video (a local video channel).

I would say you best bet is auto-off however and use a skin that allows you to put a direct link to PTVL on the home screen so you can easily turn it on when you need it again.

I see. Maybe I'll submit this as an official [Feature Request] then, and if anyone else finds it useful, Lunatixz could try to make it happen! If not/until then, I'll use this workaround.

I ask for my wife. Since I can't leave PTVL open all the time and have to close it, she can never figure out how to get it back open, haha! Maybe I'll write up an instruction list for the time being!

I think it could definitely be useful as many people (myself included) have data caps, and significant others who are not technologically saavy.

I'm not sure how easy it would be to code but maybe it could function as a timer that triggers the existing "Startup channel" code, or maybe as a derivation of the auto-off code where instead of shutting down PTVL it "reboots" it and in doing so defaults to whatever the "Startup Channel" is.

maybe create a channel guide like this one: http://vimeo.com/101061001 and see if luna can add an option for you streamers out there to default to this after a certain amount of time?
