Apple TV not staying on

My new Apple TV goes off after I finished watching something---the only way I can get it back on is to reboot the whole system--unplug the power into the wall. Is there any way I can adjust to keep it on permanently?

Note that with tvOS 13, you can’t wake the device anymore using the touch surface of the Siri Remote. You need to use the Menu or TV/Home button to wake the device.


Put your Apple TV to sleep (and wake it again) - Apple Support


You can set a wait time before the Apple TV goes to standby mode (sleep), from 15 minutes to Never.
