Want to bypass Fire TV home screen and go directly to HDMI input on power on

Just purchased this:

 

Insignia - 32” Class LED HD Smart Fire TV Edition TV
Model: NS-32DF310NA19

 

I have it connected to an Xfinity X1 box via HDMI. I have the Xfinity remote paired to the X1 box, and it is set up to power off/power on both the TV and the cable box. It does this fine, but my issue is that when the TV powers up, instead of going directly to the HDMI1 input, it takes me to the Fire TV home screen and asks what input I want to select.

 

I want to bypass the Fire TV home screen altogether and I want the TV to power on directly to HDMI1 input by default. I don't want extra steps.

 

How do I set it up this way?

 

Many thanks.

Never mind, I figured it out:

 

"Settings > Display & Sounds > Power On > Choose Last Input

 

That works!
