I vaguely remember a post here explaining why this is but I can't find it. A side effect of setting this is the TV not automatically switching to the correct input until kodi actually starts, which means I always miss the nice new boot animation
Is there another way to make the media playback buttons work besides setting hdmi_ignore_cec_init=1? Can something be done in the firmware?
I don't know if the issue you are referring to is the same as mine, but I can't use the playback buttons either. However, this issue only occurs in my case when the RPi is restarted with my TV powered on. Quickly switching the TV off and on again resolves the issue. So unless you restart your RPi on a regular basis you might as well switch your TV off and on again for the few times you do restart your RPi. Unless you consider this more annoying than missing the auto active source input switch of course.
