Thanks Scott. Ok that sounds good to me, so if the other device does
not support the auto switching, it still is doable. Is there a
particular model that I should look at? My Apple TV 3rd still does what
I want and I am starting to use the apps more too.

It depends if you have HDMI control messages enabled on both the TV and the end
device supports it. I can confirm Samsung does this with the Gen 4 Apple TV
but not previous versions, Google Chrome Cast works this way as does Comcast,
charter and FIOS set top boxes. So it can be hit or miss but your general idea
is sound. Samsung also provides spoken output so you can change sources very
easily and not have to memorize or guess what port you’re on.

Am I correct in thinking that with one of these TVs, it will switch to an
active input source, such as Apple TV? Samsung brand? My current TV is 9 years
old, might be time to replace it.
