Tv state idle #24

Hi. Is there chance to get state "on" when using netflix? It's always idle.

Why does it need to be on instead of idle?

Hey I am currently not able to support this component as I am far away from my TV.

Last time I checked I think apps like YouTube, Kodi and Netflix would be able to be played and paused, but not recognized as playing or paused, when you change the state via e.g. the remote.

I believe that idle == app is opened , meaning that it is the right state and the expected behavior.

IIRC the states are as follows Off->ON--start app or something -->Idle--press play/pause on Hass component-->Play/Pause
