Home App required to be forced closed to show inputs #88

Great effort on this plugin.

I was able to configure my source inputs only be hdmi or cec (or both), however when turning the tv off/standby those inputs get wiped away. Until the TV is back turned on. I can see the HB logs showing that there are inputs being removed (upon turn off) and inputs are added (upon turning on). But in order to have some meaningful/accurate sources displayed in home.app you need to force close the app on each power transition. Is it necessary for the plugin to remove the inputs when in standby?

Okay, in version 2.1.10 the TV power state is checked before scanning channels. Most TVs support scanning the channels while the TV is off - some apparently don't. That doesn't solve the HomeKit display issue but thats out of the scope of the plugin anyway.
