Is it somehow possible to send a CEC signal to TV so it activates ?
At moment, I advise Kodi to play a video-clip. Playing that automatic activates the TV if it is powered off.
Is it possible to do it better without such a hacky way?

CEC remains a tricky subject, as most/all TV manufacturers have their own thoughts on how CEC is supposed to work. Hence all the different names for the same technology at all the TV companies.
Afaik, the Kodi API does not support CEC commands.

Raspberry Pi4 with libreelec
The reverse way is working. I'm able to use the tv remotecontrol to control KODI

How do the Raspberry start the TV after wake-up? May I could use it to wake-up TV manually.
I use the TV as an alarm-clock but before playing the radio I need to modify the Volume.

That works well. Thanks.
[EDIT]
At the moment I use this command. Kodi seems deactivating CEC receiving. So The TV remote control not any more work until I restart kodi.
I don't know how I should do it over network. My node-red is on another PC. If kodi is not able to give me the possibility to send CEC commands over his API. I need another way to do it.

Write a kodi python service addon that runs a simple web server. That waits for a request and then runs the above terminal commands.
