It works fine on my Pi1 5.95.1 with my LG TV. But that was an update from 5.0.8 rather than a fresh diskimage install, so it may have carried the setting over.

I do have to switch it over at the TV end first (sources --> green button --> switch from "Watch TV" to "HDD Recorder"), but I've always had to do that for both Helix and Isengard.

Is it actually enabled in this Beta release ?
From memory some beta release had HDMI-CEC disabled.

Have a look in Kodi > Settings > System > Input Devices > Perpiherals > CEC Adapter > Enable

thank you, now it works.
