"You may instead by remembering the fact only some TVs back then were successful at powering the Chromecast without an external power brick, using a USB port on the TV itself to power up the Chromecast."

I'm looking at my first gen plugged into the ARC HDMI port on my Vizio TV. It is ONLY attached to the HDMI port and nothing else.

+1 my visio powers this as well It also powers lots of stuff via usb

Maybe because it’s NOT a smart tv and doesn’t have some crazy android chip SoC to constantly power. I mean obviously you can make a power supply that could do both - or neither. But it likely comes down to price for the manufacturer of the tv
