Openvix waking up TV

GerryDerpy · 2018-01-25 11:30:06

Hi all, I have a Formuler F1 box that is configured to wake the TV using CEC. Problem is that is also wakes the tv when it wakes itself in order to record something. So you could come home or downstairs in the morning and the tv is on. Is there a setting for this? Thanks

Set it up the other way around - that the TV wakes the box up and TV off sleeps the box

THere a bug in ABM that turns the receiver on after an ABM update. Are you sure this isn't the problem you're seeing?
I've ABM set to update at 3am and it leaves the receiver on afterwards.
I've had to add a Power Timer to turn the receiver off after an ABM update
