Solution was to put a different version of the LIB-CEC library into the Kodi program folder, as the one there seems to have been buggy or something.
Same problem - can you please share the folder? I've looked for an equivalent in Kodi 16 and 17, but can't find the correct folder! Thank you Smile  
 Hi all, I'm new here but here's what I did to get the Pulse Eight CEC adapter working with Kodi 17.6. I downloaded an older version of Kodi (17.0) then installed it on an old laptop, opened the "Program Files (x86)" on the C:drive, opened the "Kodi" folder, opened the "system" folder and copied the "peripherals.xml" file. Went to the new computer with Kodi 17.6, went to the computer C:drive, opened the "programs (x86)" folder, opened "Kodi" folder, opened "system" folder and replaced the "peripherals.xml" file with the older version copied from Kodi 17.0. (actually I just first renamed the 17.6 peripherals.xml file to Xperipherals.xml and then pasted the old 17.0 peripherals.xml file there). Also, in the "System" settings in Kodi, I opened "Input" then "peripherals" then "cec adapter" and set the "HDMI port" to the one I connected it to on the TV. My TV also has settings to select (HDMI-CEC) devices. I selected "Kodi" in there. Your TV may differ. One small issue is, that when I go back to Kodi(PC attached to TV) from using other apps on the TV, I have to select Kodi again in my TV's HDMI-CEC settings. Anyways, I hope this helps someone. Thanks, Cherokee.
