I've got a home theater setup via a receiver with HDMI switching that for years has forced me to manually switch the input from my DVR to Apple TV when we start to use it and then from my Apple TV back to the DVR again when we stop using it. Annoyance, but we live with it.
The new Apple TV has functionality that when it's powered on it changes the HDMI input of my receiver and TV from DVR to Apple TV which is fantastic, couldn't be happier.
But unfortunately, it turns the TV off when I put the Apple TV to Sleep. Nightmare.
We don't use Apple TV exclusively, we are on the DVR all the time, only switch the Apple TV on/off situationally, when we want to use it for an hour or so.
So here's the question: How can I keep the HDMI input switching from DVR to ATV upon waking up the Apple TV and then have the Apple TV go to Sleep and a) merely switch the input back from ATV to DVR and b) not shut off the TV?
