Previous source input return

A method of a control device to return an active source input of a media device to a previous active source input of the media device, the method comprising:

• receiving, from the media device, media device information associated with the media device, wherein the media device information comprises a current active source input of a plurality of source inputs of the media device, wherein the plurality of source inputs can receive media content for presentation on the media device;
• storing the current active source input as the previous active source input;
• receiving, from the media device, additional media device information;
• determining the active source input has changed to a new source input based on the additional media device information, wherein the additional media device information comprises the new source input as the active source input;
• transmitting a source input command to the media device based on the new source input, wherein the source input command causes the media device to return the active source input to the previous active source input;
• comparing, after transmitting the source input command, the active source input to the previous active source input;
• and
• continuing transmitting the source input command until the comparison of the active source input to the previous active source input indicates that the active source input is the previous active source input.

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium of a control device having one or more computer-readable instructions stored thereon, that when executed by a processor cause the control device to perform one or more operations comprising:

• receiving, from the media device, media device information associated with the media device, wherein the media device information comprises a current active source input of a plurality of source inputs of the media device, wherein the plurality of source inputs can receive media content for presentation on the media device;
• storing the current active source input as the previous active source input;
• receiving, from the media device, additional media device information;
• determining the active source input has changed to a new source input based on the additional media device information, wherein the additional media device information comprises the new source input as the active source input;
• transmitting a source input command to the media device based on the new source input, wherein the source input command causes the media device to return the active source input to the previous active source input;
• comparing, after transmitting the source input command, the active source input to the previous active source input;
• and
• continuing transmitting the source input command until the comparison of the active source input to the previous active source input indicates that the active source input is the previous active source input.
