I used to do this with my PS3 but even though it was fine for a while it then started to somehow lose the connection quite often. First I thought it was a faulty cable but I have swapped cables (both) and nothing changed then connected it from my ps3 straight to my tv and never lost the connection again. So I think it is a fault in my receiver (about 5 years old). Will using 2 cables give any problems?
Your remote control solution sounds good though! Any chance this is possible with a harmony?
Thanks!
Well the cec control is what makes it so everything talks. With the harmony it would be IR. I was using Crystalbuntu and a harmony 900 before this. Just set up an activity in the harmony software to turn on and off all your devices. Worked okay for me.
