Hi everyone,
Until yesterday, I was using CEC to control Kodi on my RPi with my TV remote and it was working fine.
Today, I added a Monoprice HDMI Converter to my hardware setup. It takes the Rpi's HDMI signal and outputs the HDMI to the TV (Sharp Aquos) and the audio (optical) to the receiver.
In Kodi (Settings/System/Input/Peripherals), the CEC Adapter (libCEC) settings are set to Default.
My issue now is that CEC only works after I reboot the Rpi. If I change the TV source to the cable box and later return to the RPi/Kodi source, CEC stops working. I can only get it to work without rebooting by running cec-client in a terminal and entering "as" in the cec-client output to make the TV the active source. This will work (even if I switch the source and return later to Kodi) until I reboot and run cec-client again (with the "as" entry).
In my new setup, is there a way to avoid running cec-client and keep CEC working when the source is changed?
Thanks.
