The answer to this is.... The question that answers your question; Does your TV support remote control trough HDMI? If it does then yes whenever the chromecast is provided power it can wake-up a HDMI display or TV. (Keep in mind many TV's provide limited amount and more often no power of TV is in standby/off mode/state...thus whenever no power to chromecast thus unable to power on display/TV. Turning it off is less likely to work, tho not in imaginable. (Model, Brand and firmware/software dependant...as well as what app-lication and device is used to control it) (Also since devices capable of turning on often don't require the capability of remote over HDMI since it simply detects for a incoming signal...signal received and thus send from chromecast it turns on thus that works....same for turning off) Thinking back and looking to my writing, it is likely it will do so due to receiving and loss of signals, thus remote control over HDMI seems optional...tho the advantage of remote over HDMI could be auto switching to correct channel as well as volume control of tv fróm chromecast) My galaxy S4 for example has an Infa Red IR sensor, with the use of Google-Assistant* it could potentially also turn off the TV since Google's assistant could potentially utilize the IR sensors. YES, HDMI is nearly capable of Full fledged control, however this is more ofthen available for remote control enabled devices like new gen/rev/age bleu-ray players and set-up boxes like roku for example. Can it be done? Yes there are scenario's where a chromecast Is able to power a TV and display on and off.... Will it do so?, that depends on several factors and mentioned above. For obvious reasons only if a TV is in a state where it can be powered on/off with the remote that it can be done true HDMI.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, I can with the chromecast ultra, but it didn't work with the regular chromecast, but it may have been because it's on an older version smart tv.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes, it should turn on as soon as you try to cast something. However, you will have to test it and it may have to be already on the HDMI port that the Chromecast is on to work. Different televisions have different settings.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can ONLY turn the TV on. Can't turn it off.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes you could do that rather easily could have done it that way myself except I went with the Amazon echo's but you will end up having to purchase a device that interfaces between your Google device in your TV such as the Logitech harmony elite system
