I think i got it

But I did the Variable as you had it except on the else section for the False TV statement i put go to HDMI 1. I thought i had the 8 sec delay in that macro what i want is if the TV is off it needs a about 8 sec when it initially starts up before it will accept a command if its on just jump to input but when i do the macro now it does a 8sec delay when the TV is on instead of just going to the HDMI 1 input
