If I'm not wrong, it was only referring to the capabilities of the HDMI 2.0 bridge, right? This does not automatically mean that CEC is wired in hardware to anything, or does it?
Or are there any plans / chances that CEC might be included somehow without an additional PuleEight adapter (either internal or external)?
The bridge spec here (https://media.digikey.com/pdf/Data%20She...asheet.pdf) talks about CEC tunnelling over DP AUX channel. I guess that it means no additional hw is needed.
I believe that PulseEight is a HDMI <-> USB CEC bridge for cases where native HDMI or DP<->HDMI bridge does not support CEC natively. MegaChips seems to support CEC natively according to spec. It would be interesting is someone could test it, whether TV would relay the remote commands back to the ASRock box via CEC. Assuming the operating system and particular driver can expose the CEC over DP AUX.
