TV always ON
-
Hi guys, how can we keep the TV ON all the time? Even if there is a power loss and back on ? I dont want to be turning TV ON and OFF with the remote… Let me know solutions please. Thank you,
-
That’s a feature of your TV, not the rpi nor MM. You need to look into the settings for your TV.
-
Thanks for the reply. I know its the TV, but any solution for what i want to do? Any model os specific TV allows me to do that?
Thanks! -
Sorry, I don’t. Someone else here might, or you might have to hit Google or manufacturer’s support forums to ask.

Thanks. I tried to search on google but its a really specific and technical info… Not a general question… So its hard to find an answer for that. -
Yeah, stuff like that is rather unique to the application, so the chances of finding exactly what you need are small. That’s why I suggested also finding a manufacturer’s forum and ask there. I’ve been looking for a repair guide for my flat screen so I can fix the remote control circuit … no such luck. You’d think with a brand like LG it should be easy.

I have a Samsung TV, when I plug my Pi into it when it’s on standby it turns itself on and on to the correct channel
I’ll test it again tonight to confirm, as I may have got this completely wrong! :cold_sweat:

Hey, thanks!!! Please let me know. Thats my only “problem” right now.
Ive been reading about it and I found something about HDMI-CEC (Aninet+ for Samsung). You have to install something on Rpi to make it compatible… I will get more info tonight too. -
You could probably look into this and making a script every time RPi is power cycled, a CEC command is sent to the TV via HDMI cable.
This script could be executed if the RPi is restarted.https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=36588&p=306449
