    I'm curious about this, too. If money was no object, what would be everyone's ideal setup?

I'd probably have to run it through steam?  I can handle that but my family not so much. So I'm back to square one

    FYI, If your TV is new-ish and supports CEC, that signal goes through the HDMI cable to your host device. In the case of a PC, the HDMI plugs into your video card, and video cards don't support CEC. However, CEC adaptor devices for PCs do exist. I think they go on the end of your cable and split the CEC signal off into a USB cable. I personally don't know anyone who's tried one, but that sounds like exactly what I would want. No idea how much work it would take to get a HTPC to sleep and wake via CEC, and no idea if the Jellyfin desktop client plays nice with CEC control, but it sounds like it's worth looking into.

    I'll be following this thread closely because I want to do the same sort of project Victory-hand
