As I understand, it’s esp based(programmable) tv remote?
I appreciate your answer but the idea just doesn’t fit in my head. Connecting another device for just one simple job is nuts for me.
The thing is, if back in 2009 one device could turn on another via hdmi, then why the hack, I can’t make it 15 years later?! It doesn’t have to be via HA. Even better if I could make it in windows.
I’m looking for a software solution:)
EDIT: I tried WOL in the same manner as I turn on my pc
show_name: true
show_icon: true
type: button

action: call-service
service: wake_on_lan.send_magic_packet

My tv is working only as another pc display so it’s “fixed” for one signal source. When tv is off, pc output is set to tv, I hit the button on smartphone HA app. TV turns on only backlight for ~30s and then goes off.
