Hello, My desired set up for the HDMI CEC is to have: TV never wakes up Zidoo - not working 100%! TV turning off Zidoo Zidoo waking up TV Zidoo turning off TV Zidoo is at latest version at the moment - it was upgraded approximately 2 weeks ago. 4 out of 5 cases when I turn on the TV it will wake up Zidoo as well.. is this a known bug or misconfiguration? Please have a look at attached screenshots. Thanks!
I think Mark once said: "CEC is the devil's work and souldn't be trusted whatsoever" and i think it's pretty much true all things considered. In my case, my TV at least once a day turns everything connected via HDMI when it's being turned on, so i think pretty much HDMI-CEC doesn't ever work as intended.
I got CEC to work exactly once on my setup, it ran for a day perfectly then everything broke and it started turning on and off randomly, receiver volume control stopped working, the tv would come on at 2am etc etc. I have never had CEC work flawlessly, ever, with any gear on any setup. All off and controlled by external automation now.
I have this same issue. I connected a power plug with on/off remote so that when the unit is off, I simply turn it completely off. Works good enough.
CEC is the work of the devil and should never be used. Hence: https://www.lindy.co.uk/cables-adap...07/hdmi-cec-less-adapter-female-to-male-p7299
