Another (!) silly vista sleep issue

OK, now I'm hoping there's a simple check-box I've missed here, otherwise this is silly.

I use my x360 to stream TV/Video/Music from my Vista desktop machine, and that's lovely. If I press the sleep button on the desktop, it sleeps. Press the power button it wakes up. Again, that's lovely. The problem comes with making Vista put itself to sleep. If I tell it not to sleep when I'm sharing media, it never actually goes to sleep. If I tell it to sleep when I'm sharing, I get halfway through watching something and it sleeps ! Is there not an option that makes it not sleep ONLY if there's an active stream? Surely that's how the option SHOULD work?

Any tips?

Cheers
