In short

Hi. I am new to Roomie.\r \r My problem is switching the TV Input to match what is playing. I have configured 2 activities, one to play from the DirecTV box and one to play from my AppleTV. All are being controlled via IP.\r \r There does not seem to be a command available to go to Input 1 or Input 4 on the TV when that activity is selected. The only TV remote command I see is Input Toggle. How do I select a specific TV input for a specific activity? I have a Sony Bravia KDL-60EX720.\r \r Thanks.\r \r Mike

Sony TV IP control uses an input toggle. They offer explicit input selection via infrared.\r \r Thank you.

Thanks. That answered my question.\r \r I will get the IR hardware & App Package.\r \r Mike

Hi. I am new to Roomie.

My problem is switching the TV Input to match what is playing. I have configured 2 activities, one to play from the DirecTV box and one to play from my AppleTV. All are being controlled via IP.

There does not seem to be a command available to go to Input 1 or Input 4 on the TV when that activity is selected. The only TV remote command I see is Input Toggle. How do I select a specific TV input for a specific activity? I have a Sony Bravia KDL-60EX720.

Thanks.
