Is it possible, change TV input source programmatically?

Question

I have a TV with two hdmi inputs source:

• In hdmi1 connected satellite receiver
• In hdmi2 connected android device

I'm looking for possibilities to control active hdmi TV input from android(switched between each other)

In the beginning I thought about control TV by IR port, but I didn't find cheap usb ir stick. Now I think about HDMI CEC, but very little information about it. I don't understand, Does CEC allow make it? Maybe exists other ways?

Сlarification: I have a android application, which can play media content by scheduler, and sometime app must will be able to change input source TV to other HDMI port, and change back later. Finally: I need control input source TV from Android device.

If I understand your question well, I believe you're searching for an HDMI switch.

For example:

They even sell some that you can control with a remote:
