Hello, I am using a Panasonic 42 TV and the HDMI CEC feature isn't working properly.
I started enigma2 from the command line, but I don't see any CEC message when i press TV remote.
CEC is working on this TV with PS3 and with XBMC.

Can someone give me help?

Thanks!

box and oe version ?

[skydrops]

Thanks for the ultra-fast reply. Box is DM800SE with OpenPli 3 (last nightly build).

how you set HDMI-CEC there in plugins ?

[skydrops]

Tried various combinations there. Now everything is set to yes, wakeup to any activity and 150ms of interval.

I did notice that CEC address is changing on every box reboot.

unplug others devices from tv and try again, if it will be better.

Now it seems to be responding to TV standby and wakeup, also some remote control buttons work, like timeshift pause, but not channel up / down or channel numbers from the TV remote. Do they need manual mapping?

Is there some kind of conflict when I have more HDMI devices plugged in?

Some device can brocke hdmi. I had cfonnected Emtec M200 and when it was connected, nothing worked. Now is not used and cec works well.
Not all buttons works from TVs RC.

Thank you ims for the support. I've tried again and the remote numbers and channel up / down are working fine.
But if I change the input source from TV remote and go back to HDMI input, CEC is not working anymore.

I guess CEC functions are still in development and in the future this will work without any issues (I would really like to help somehow).

on TV you change HDMI input to next device and when you on TV set HDMI to DM800Se, then it is not switch to DM800SE ?

Yes, I change TV input while CEC is working to another HDMI input. When I come back to DM800's HDMI input, CEC is gone.

When you set box to standby and then wakeup it, TV is switched then well ? ( Disable TV to standby and enable Wake up TV before this test ). How it is with box cec address ? Is stable now ?

[skydrops]

I did this test, when I put the box to standby, the TV changes its input. When the box wakes up, the TV goes back to DM input and CEC is working.
If I change inputs through TV menu, then I loose CEC.
CEC address is stable at 1.0.0.0 if I dont have any other HDMI devices plugged in.

when you toggle to some next HDMI input with TV's RC and then toggle back to BOX with TV's RC, then is not back picture of box on TV ???

[skydrops]

Picture is back but the TV remote doesn't control the box anymore after switching.

[ims]

It can be (as i tried), when tv does not recognized box after toggle back to box's HDMI input - then only display HDMIx and not dm800se, i think...

[skydrops]

Do you have the same behaviour? This seems to be a problem... The TV is aware of the other devices when I switch inputs back and forth when they are connected.
