@AT1ST@mstdn.ca @saxnot@chaos.social @groxx@hachyderm.io @silberfuchs@social.edist.ro @Hex@kolektiva.social well, I've yet to find a TV (or any screen) that doesn't turn on upon getting an HDMI/DVI/VGA/DP/SCART signal.
- And the few cases where you don't want people fumbling around (and you can't be assed to i.e. send a Wake-on-LAN packet) are digital signage and those are on 24/7 or get powered on/off by scheduled breakers anyway…

@kkarhan@mastodon.social @saxnot@chaos.social @groxx@hachyderm.io @silberfuchs@social.edist.ro @Hex@kolektiva.social I take it you don't run multiple inputs into a single TV, without using an input splitter. If you have something that's HDMI 1, another on HDMI 2, and a third on DVI, and most of those devices are just in sleep mode most of the time (Or some are perpetually on.), then...it really sells the "Just go to one screen, and figure out which of the 5 services has the movie/show you want to watch.".
