Hdmi-cec not working in bh 2.04?

[boyofford]

Hi all, just done re-install with 2.04 from scratch and all up and running apart from on problem.

I used to be able to turn off either the tv or solo2 and have the other turn off automatically use the hdmi-cec plugin, but now it doesn't work for me. The rest of the features of the plugin I didn't use anyway.

Has anyone else got it working? Any ideas?

It's a handy must have feature to stop the family turning one off without the other. Otherwise may have to go back to bh 2.0.3.

and what's your configuration for this plugin?

It's the same config which worked in previous versions 2.01 - 2.04

Thanks

my configuration like this works perfectly on duo2

Maybe image flashed bad? Don't have it in me to reinstall again at the moment.

levi's settings working just perfect. Have you changed any settings in your telly?

Don't think so, like I said it was working fine, I reflashed with new version and it didn't. But I'll have a look.
Probably just bad flash or badvplugin install, when I get chance I'll backup and do clean install and just setup hdmi-cec to check it works then bit by bit install plugins I use and see if it breaks.
I do have ten or more plugins installed, and couple more than previous so maybe some odd conflict messing things up.

Well I tried using personal backup which I had from bh 2.03 and hdmi-cec still didn't work.
Next step revert to full backup and see if it works.

Lol, don't understand it but figured it out!
I had unplugged the power to my raspberry pi on hdmi 2. Powered on raspberry pi and hdmi-cec between solo2 and hdmi 1 started working as it should again!
Must of been telly misbehaving!.

Thanks for all help.

i am hijacking this thread, but cant seem to make it work on my toshiba tv
it says cec compatible ( 46TL963B )

does it matter what hdmi cable i use?
I think i still have an old one i had passed through the wall (hdmi 1.3)

I think 1.3 should be ok, but I know some hdmi cables don't work for hdmi-cec from experience.
I'm using hdmi 1.4 at the moment though and I think the solo2 comes with a hdmi 1.4 cable.

you need to configure your regza-link (toshiba's own name of hdmi-cec) in telly menu. If your cable is compatible with 1.3 format it should work with cec commands too.
