CEC Issue - Xbox Series X switches inputs on certain apps

Not sure if you had a question here, only question I could pull from this is "Why doesn't Xbox send a HDMI switch command when on"
There's no manual way to do it once the Xbox is on, It sends it at bootup but after that i believe there is no way to trigger it again, same way a wired controller would turn the Xbox on when plugged in but only while its off. Outside of that this seems more of a discussion topic or a suggestion kind of deal.

... I want to switch the input and watch TV. ... but when I switch the input back to the 360, then it has to restart.

Try if your TV has an option to turn off its
CEC feature. Sometimes TV makers call the CEC function differently. Like Viera Link, Anynet+, or Bravia Sync or Bravia Link. This is probably the function that causes your Xbox to restart when you switch back.

The Xbox One doesn't use HDMI-CEC. Everything simply uses infrared commands. So it's not going to automatically switch inputs to the right one. I suppose it could switch an input if the TV is already on and the code to power on the TV changes the input
if the TV is already on.

It’s nice to hear I’m not the only one! I get annoyed when it’s made out to be my other hardwares fault cos I had a One X briefly and that didn’t have this issue when plugged into exactly the same setup.

I’m wondering if it’s a bug that needs fixing or if it’s a deliberate way of making you stick to Xbox only lol

I have the same issue. Funny but it was working a year ago. Ms must have broke something lately.
