What is the difference between 6.0.+ and 4.0.+? #529

I am using manjaro with a raspberry pi 4. cec-client with libсeс 6.0. + can't find tv. The error that comes out: no serial port given. trying autodetect: FAILED But with 4.0.7 everything works fine. Because of this reason, apparently Kodi cannot be found by my TV either.

Hello, I got the same problem ... I have tried to remove the version 6 which I compiled from git. I have deleted the folders to which I downloaded the binaries. I am learning still in this linux/raspbian enviorment ... so i don't know what I did.

Now every time I reboot Raspberry I start my tv :)) I then tried to apt-get remove the 4,0 version ...

Maybe I will find a solution here to remove the 6th version and install cec-utils through apt-get as I don't want to erase my raspberry and start over...

Thanks!

From your answer, I assume you are using a debian based operating system. I talked to the manjaro linux maintainers, they said that the next version of kodi will use the libcec version that comes with kodi.

Hi marshevms, I am not using kodi and most probably I will not use it. I run raspbian and I was trying to start playing with CEC-frames just to power-on the tv as soon as I"airplay" something to my raspberry.

Now I have autodetect failed in all comands and -l gives me no adapter ...

@alecsandes FYI Raspbian is a debian based distribution...
