TV Alarm Clock and Black Screen Timer

Pooka got this idea from Mark GoingLikeSixty:

My wife and I like to fall asleep to TV news (no all news radio
available) so I set the sleep timer and “black” the screen by lowering
brightness. Surprisingly this doesn’t make the screen black so I also
have to reduce the contrast.

So two ideas but similar. Make a sleep setting that makes screen black
and sets timer at same time.

AND, we like to wake up to news too. So why not have an setting that
turns on the TV at the time we choose?

Since I’m wishing… it would be cool to have the TV come on in the
morning with a lower sound level and increase gradually!

Hey Mark, is this what you had in mind for the TV?
