Re: Question about STB on & tuned to channel but TV off

said by en102 See Profile :

I wonder if its possible to 'sense' if TV is actually in use (i.e. different voltage/resistance/current level) and adjust accordingly.
You would have to have the TV connected to a power outlet on the back of the STB, like some cable boxes have. You could then monitor the current passing through to that outlet and could determine if the TV was on or not. However, the box would need an outlet and/or an ammeter.
