all those CEC issues have been around for quite some time, except for the tv turning itself on again afaik which started around 1220.

wake kodi from dimmed state often is not possible with tv remote but works fine with the kodi app on a smart phone, this has been around ever since I started using nightlies from kodi 17 onwards.

maybe this is tied to the tvs though? mine is a panasonic viera TX-P50V10E from 2009

Identifying the exact build where the unwanted behaviour started would be useful.

Well, it goes way, way back, so it took me some time to pinpoint it. Since I don't update and change CEC settings often I didn't notice it till yesterday.

The last build with "almost" normal CEC functionality and behavior on my RPi3 & PanaTv is 1130. "Almost" because, only after first change in CEC settings the info "Configuration updated" appears. Following changes are accepted, but "Configuration updated" does not appear any more.

On all versions after 1130 (including 0102) CEC works normally, if I don't change any settings. If I do, then reboot is again the only option to get it back.

Thanks. That seems to tie up with the "firmware: CEC code clean up" commit.

I believe there has always been a system/input/peripherals/cec settings bug.
You can update once per boot successfully, but the next change gets ignored. I have reported that to opdenkamp, but I believe issue is still present.

But you are reporting something different. Are you saying that the first change to CEC settings breaks the CEC connection so remote no longer works?
Which setting are you changing?

Hi,

regarding this cec issue with setting breaking cec function. I have reported the same on 28.12.2016 in this forum.
When you change cec setting and confirm it, cec breaks and it does not work anymore until reboot.
And it seems it is not LED TV vendor specific, since I have 2012 Samsung LED TV and others have TVs from other manufacturers.

This bug is not present in offical libreelec 7.09.010 alpha build.

On 1130 I can make as many CEC changes as I want, -> open settings-make ANY change-close with OK, then repeat the action, and CEC keeps on working. After that build ANY change in CEC settings breaks the connection to tv and remote does not work till reboot, have to use my small wifi keyboard/touch pad combo to navigate.
In fact this keyboard, which I use extensively, is the reason I didn't see this bug sooner Smile

Will try latest alpha, all my tests were made with upgraded 7.0.3

Edit: Tried 7.09..10 and CEC is working the same way as in 1130: only after first change (after reboot) in CEC Settings the info "Configuration updated" appears, all subsequent setting changes are saved, but there is no more "Configuration updated" info.

On 0104 CEC is (for me) working again the same way as on 7.09.10 and 1130

Only after first change (after reboot) in CEC Settings the info "Configuration updated" appears, all subsequent setting changes are saved and working, but there is no more "Configuration updated" info.

Not yet.

I do have a question though - a while ago you posted the following:
(2016-12-31, 12:31)Deepjungle Wrote: I did a fresh install on a second raspi 3 with another RAID System. Same case but with 4x4TB Seagate drives. With 1022 it is working after upgrading to 1031 in this case it did not get detected.

1022 dmesg log
http://sprunge.us/KSJO

1031 dmesg log
http://sprunge.us/MWYT

Subsequently you identified there is some sort of 8.4TB limit with the latest kernel (not sure what that is about, yet).

However, with your "working" #1022 system (4.8.2 kernel), the 4x4TB drives are only being recognised as having a capacity of 9TB (8.19TiB):
Code:
[    0.000000] Linux version 4.8.2 ([email protected]) (gcc version 5.4.0 (GCC) ) #1 SMP Sat Oct 22 21:05:20 BST 2016
...
[    9.840137] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 17581277184 512-byte logical blocks: (9.00 TB/8.19 TiB)

whereas with the #1031 system (4.8.6 kernel) the - I'm assuming - same disks have a capacity of 12TB (10.9TiB):
Code:
[    0.000000] Linux version 4.8.6 ([email protected]) (gcc version 5.4.0 (GCC) ) #1 SMP Mon Oct 31 21:22:52 GMT 2016
...
[    9.733719] sd 0:0:0:0: [sda] 23441768448 512-byte logical blocks: (12.0 TB/10.9 TiB)

Can you confirm that the drives were exactly the same in this test, and that only the RPi build is being changed?

If so, and assuming there is some sort of 8.4TB-ish limit somewhere (kernel, filesystem, USB/SATA bridge hardware), then perhaps the older 4.8.2 kernel is working because it is under-reporting (or under-recognising?) the total disk capacity - god knows if this might have then led to corruption of some sort once you started filling the disks.

Perhaps the more recent kernel (4.8.4 since #1023) has corrected that bug, and refuses to mount the drives for some reason (corrupt?) There's no indication in the #1022 and #1031 dmesg logs of the disks being mounted - can you run "journalctl -a | pastebinit" after the #1031 (or #latest) system has been up for about 2 minutes (or once you connect the drive).

Also, you said you tested with NTFS and could only mount up to 8,388.239 MB (I assume you mean GB - 8.388TB). Have you tested with ext4 as the file system, to see if the failure to mount is a limitation of NTFS (or the way this NTFS file system is presented to the kernel)? The disk size limit for NTFS with 4KB clusters is 16TB, but it would be worth trying a different filesystem to see if there is any different behaviour.

Hi,

I can confirm, that with 0104 build CEC problem is gone. The setting "switch to this source at kodi startup" works as it should and there is no cec function failure after cec settings are changed in the input section, so no reboot is necessary anymore.

I might have found another bug connected to weather plugin: when I updated Kodi to latest (0104) Millhouse build and switched weather provider to yahoo, kodi restarted after i confirmed provider change, and was then stuck in Kodi reboot loop, so i had to manually update back to alpha 7.90.010 version, disable yahoo weather plugin and update back to Millhouse again.

Millhouse I have another question: how do you use game emulators? I can install the emulator addons, but where do I start game roms from? Is there a launcher? I am asking this because in separate retroplayer libreelec builds there was game menu included among others (movies, tvshows, music, pictures, addons) but not in Millhouse builds.

Hi Milhouse,

in the mentioned test the disks where not the same size but the same manufacturer, but in a later tests i used the same disk over and over while i tried to find out where the maximum limit for recognation of size is. On Windows i have no problems with the size and the size is correct. I did not tried a different filesystem and now i have not the chance anymore cause the drive is filled and i have not second testdrive.

When i mount the drive with full size and in 1022+ manually there is no problem, only the auto attach mechanism seems not wot work. But i will verify this tomorrow and then i will make a log from journalctl.

Greetings and thanks in advance for your time.
