How to Turn off auto-detect HDMI

[CNMark]

How do you turn off the auto-detect HDMI feature? Sometimes my Apple TV comes on and then the TV automatically turns on as well but I don't want the TV to do so. How do you turn off this feature?

Thanks,

Mark

And the only response we have from Samsung is....

"We will forward your suggestions accordingly."

Disgraceful.

Samsung, this is a standard feature that should have an option to disable.

Don't shift blame on Nintendo, it happens with other devices too! 

Very unhappy!

I am very unhappy about the fact that I cannot tell my TV to not switch inputs automatically.

Who was the idiot who passed this on QA?

Has anyone tried to shame them on Facebook yet?  If there's 26 pages of complaints about about switching HDMI ports regardless of device type, then some public attention needs to be brought to it...

Haven't done Farcebook yet, but a few of us have left honest reviews on Amazon etc.

Farcebook could well be a good idea, they won"t want it visible to all I don't suppose.

How long before the first post gets deleted?

Just tried updating to firmware 1168.3. Still no added option to turn off this annoying feature, and the auto input switching still exists. 😞

Samsung, hello?

i updated to 1168 too but no new option for anynet+ .

this thread was created a year ago, since that date no resolution has been made by Samsung nor a commitment to resolve our issue.

it's our issue, not samsung problem (they already had our money)

Started Tweeting at them - https://twitter.com/jfield/status/849524678423187457 - as well as posting on the Samsung Support Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/samsungsupport/ - maybe this route will draw some attention.

You could turn it off on the device that is triggering it. I.e ps4, switch, etc. Works for me.

That's one of the numerous options I have tried. Doesn't work for me.
