CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - tomer953 - 2013-08-04 Hey. Raspberry Pi connected via HDMI to LG TV. I'm trying to control it with the LG Remote (with CEC-HDMI): Arrows are working! (down,up,right,left) Pause\play\stop - working as well. and thats it. it is impossible to control without "BACK" button. I pressed all the buttons on the TV Remote and none of them seems to work as BACK.. So, I googled the problem, and see that custom Remote.xml combined with LIRCMAP.xml files will solve the problem. But: in Lircmap you need to specify the REMOTE NAME, and keys IDS, whice the common way to know them is SSH To the openelec, and write: IRW then press buttons on the remote, and it will show the output information. Unfortanatlly, the IRW command does not recocnize CEC-Remotes. and the output stays blank. Any Ideas how to know my Remote ID\Name and keys IDs for putting them in LIRCMAP.XML ? Or - Any other idea how to make the BACK button work?

RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - tomer953 - 2013-08-04 Ok So I Found 2 more button that working. In the remote they look like right\left arrows (FF\RR) >> and << so I Found that the << is work as BACK! Aswome! Solved my Problem! Now I'm searching for a way to make the ">>" button to open the ContaxMenu, its seems that now is function as "SkipNext" because when I Press It XBMC Says "No playlist Items" or something similar. So I Debug Log and Press The >> key again and again, and this is the lines: Code: 23:11:40 T:2966107232 DEBUG: CecLogMessage - key pressed: forward (4b) as you can see, Action is SkipNext. now what to put in Remote.xml for change this button to open ContextMenu? RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - Bert02 - 2013-09-04 hi, have you solved this edit: i have solved my issues i had a keyboard.xml files as i copied it across from my other htpc and the remote just worked with CEC i tried adding commands with <remote> i eventually replaced back with my original one again and renamed it to remote.xml.the keyboard still works and then the remote didnt but i noticed i got pulse 8 cec thing popup on screen where as before i didnt get anything so now i tried editing it and everything works how i want what you would want to do is Code: <remote> Re: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - rikardo1979 - 2013-09-06 for cec remote you only need to edit remote.xml, nothing else and it should work RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - Doktor-X - 2013-09-06 Speaking of cec and lg i have 32ld450 and i never be able to set it up i enable simplink but pi is not detected RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - Trickname - 2013-09-06 you can even try this: remote.xml RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - DocG - 2013-09-06 (2013-08-04, 15:41)tomer953 Wrote: Hey. Must be dependent on the model. I've set up a Pi with a LG TV the other day, and I had no issues with using the LG remote. Didn't explicitly look for the context menu, but the Back button actually was where I expected it to be.

You'll need to find an unused button that is forwarded (I use a coloured button) and map that to contextmenu. RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - Trickname - 2013-09-08 you can also use stop+play+pause in a tricky combo for this : edit: stop+play RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - cdbarker - 2014-02-16 Hi I have an LG 32LV550T. I'm not using an AV Receiver for audio. I have the pluse 8 CEC adaptor enabled in xbmc and LG simplink switched on. I found that the Rewind button (<<) maps to 'Info' ('I' on keyboard) FastForward button (>>) maps to 'ContextMenu' ('C' on keyboard) Exit button maps to 'Back' ('Esc' on keyboard) in xbmc already, so no remote.xml file needed. RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - jabaa - 2014-04-04 I have a LG 37LH3010. To go back in the menu I have to press the green Stop button and directly after this the OK button. I did not change anything in the system. So this is the standard for my CEC and it is ok for me. RE: CEC-HDMI with LG Remote - mmm286 - 2015-08-12 Hi I have a smart LG and I can't find the context menu. How could I map these button? Thanks |
