https://wiki.openpli.org/HDMI-CEC
By default the HDMI-CEC option is turned off. If you want to alter the setting, your Customize level must be Advanced or higher.
1. Go to Menu->Setup->System->Customize
2. Put the Setup mode to Advanced and press green (OK)
3. Select Audio / Video->HDMI-CEC setup and Enable the function.

It should work with the basic mechanism. The specific service reference or as far I know via a hotkey. As the remote of the VU has less buttons we did not define a standard key yet. E.g. Long tv is already toggle tv screen on the display... I'm considering to extend hotkey with a shift key function... where shift is e.g. Long red

Thank you littlesat 

 

But This function can be activated by the blue button in the original VU + Plus team image, it's very simple, it's a shame that the OpenPli image does not allow it.

 

And to amigo again, i don't understand how you can activate HDMI IN of Ultimo 4K using an Apple TV ... The apple TV Have only a HDMI out , do you mean you plud this output

on the Vu HDMI in and it works ?

 

Thank you

The blue button is already in use.

 

If you like, you can use the hotkey to assign the HDMI IN function to the blue key, no problem. You will only lose it's current function.

 

If Apple TV had HDCP protection on its HDMI port, you probably need a HDMI switch that removes this protection, the HDMI IN of most boxes isn't HDCP capable.

Can you record from HDMI in? If so, that sounds promising. ;)

I assigned the green long button to activate HDMI in. Works ok. I only need it once in a while.

Mijn schotel is een T90 met 10 LNB's. Daarnaast voor de fun nog een draaibaar systeem met een Triax TD 78.

Dreamboxen heb ik niet meer echt actief. Verder heb ik ook nog een een VU+ duo2 met 500Gb harddisk + een VU+ Uno, Zero, Solo 4K, Ultimo 4K, Zero 4K, Uno 4Kse. + ook nog een Xtrend ET7x00. Daarnaast heb ik ook nog diverse andere modellen w.o. een Formuler F4, ET8500, ET7500, Mut@nt 2400HD, Xsarius Fusion HD se en verder nog wel het e.e.a. waarmee op verzoek vanalles wordt getest. Iemand moet het tenslotte doen. ;) :)
Los van de eerder genoemde modellen heb ik nog wel een rits aan testsamples als Mut@nt 2400HD, HD60, GB UE4K, GB Trio4K, Maxitec Multibox combo en Twin, Octagon sf8008, sf8008 mini en last but nog least enkele modellen van het Grieks Duitse Edision.

Voor centrale opslag van media gebruik ik een Qnap 219P 
met tweemaal 2 Tb harddisks + een Synology DS414 met 12 Tb Totale opslag.

Maybe we could consider to put this function on long green by default (also for the other boxes with hdmi in)

Very disappointed by the HDMI In limited to 720P on a 4K terminal ... I suppose it is voluntary on behalf of the team VU +. It is a pity, it would be normal that what comes out is to the same definition as what comes in.

Might be some lame copy protection thing. Like boxes that used to have only an RF out so you couldn't make high-definition copies.

Tks WanWizard, You're surely right, but everybody could record video from his own camcorder /or camera  in full HD in a STB like VU+ 4K according to the price we paid for.

No, it seems to be a hardware limitation.
