This may be(probably is) in the wrong forum. I'd like to start automating things by beginning with my tv/mac mini setup. I've done some searching, and I'm sure I just couldn't find it because I think its out there. I would like the tv to behave like a mac display. i.e. I would like for the tv to turn on when the computer is woken, I'd like for the tv to turn off when it goes to sleep. I'd like to be able to control that as I would a monitor in the energy saving settings. I would also like to be able to control the tv's volume with the volume buttons on my keyboard or on the menu bar. I understand the codes that need to be sent to my tv, I'm just not sure how to make the computer recognize the tv as a display so that I can set a display sleep time, or how to make the triggers for wake and sleep. Later on I'd like to automate it to display certain things at certain times, but I think that will be easy enough to handle. Any help would be appreciated.
