Node-Red: When TV is turned off, is there any way to get the history of the last 5 minutes it was on, then restore it when I turn it back on?

Let’s say I turn my tv before I leave the house. I want Node Red to pull the last states/attributes of the TV and associated devices (android box, speaker level, last channel/input it was on, etc.) before shutdown and store it. Then when I return home and my zone arrival activates, the TV turns on to the last setting it was before it was turned off?

I’m assuming that when I press the tv off button, I can’t create a scene because creating a scene with snapshot will pull the CURRENT state of the TV (off) and will not restore it when it comes on. That is why I want it to pull from the TV’s history within the last 5 minutes (or even better the last instant before it was shut off).

You could create/update the scene whenever a change to one of the attributes in the scene occur, except for when the TV is turned off.
