Google got it surprisingly well with the Chromecast with Google TV, it can send a power on and off, switch input and even control the actual TV volume through CEC.

I just wish it supported auto-off. It is nice that I can ask it to turn off the TV but I really don't need the screensaver playing forever.

Are you sure you didn't get bluffed out by their IR emitter?

Chromecast with Google TV contains an IR emitter to handle that, and IR is the default not CEC.

I can change the volume from another floor (I tried out of curiosity), and it also controls the TV volume through the Android TV Remote. My phone doesn't have an IR emitter.

I really like how starting a cast can wake up my whole A/V system.
