I seem to have a bit of a CEC issue where Kodi/OE isn't sticking to what settings are set. The behaviour seems inconsistent.
Setup is
HP Chromebox running OE 5.0.7 (happened with 5.0.6 too)
Pulse Eight CEC adapter (running on a powered USB hub to prevent booting issues)
Onkyo TX-SR309 (Chromebox attached the HDMI input 1)
Panasonic TX-P50ST60B (AVR attached to HDMI input 2 due to ARC)
When everything is working the CEC settings page shows the option to pick what the HTPC is connected to (AVR or TV), so it is set to AVR and HDMI port 1.
Every few reboots or resumes it will seemingly forget it is connected to an AVR and send the signal to change the TV to HDMI input 1.
When I go into the CEC settings the option to pick what it is connected to has disappeared.
Is this down to an HDMI handshake issue? It seems to be a fairly recent thing, because for some time I had everything working smoothly with regards to CEC.
Any ideas on this?
Is it possible to have the settings stick no matter what Kodi sees? To force it to think it's connected to an AVR?
