How do I determine if my hardware is supported? #564

Open penguinairlines opened 3 years ago

penguinairlines commented 3 years ago

I am looking to enable CEC controls on a NUC style device that I have, but I have installed cec-utils and I see that cec-client -l returns Found devices: NONE. I figure this is probably because I am not using supported hardware, but I looked through the documentation and I do not see anything to indicate hardware checking commands in the documentation or FAQ, but maybe I missed it as I only spent about an hour looking.

Some metadata that may be incidentally helpful: libCEC version: 4.0.4 Linux-4.4.0-176 (Pop!_OS aka Debian)

You need our cec adapter, visit www.pulse-eight.com

Oh! I understand now, thank you. I was seeing that others could use this package without dedicated hardware, such on a Raspberry Pi, is that correct? Or is there another similarly named package?

malard commented 3 years ago

We support the pi natively

@malard I'm using ASUS tinker board 2s and I'm trying to run cec-client -l and it returns Found devices: NONE Also by using cec-ctl it works correctly but using cec-client it doesn't Do you have any idea how should i setup my device?

I'm using tinker OS debian 10

you need our hardware

EngineerGuy314 commented 1 year ago

just to clarify, we need dedicated CEC hardware, or a Raspberry Pi which is "natively" supported?

But are any other SBC's natively supported? Specifically the OrangePi?

malard commented 1 year ago

Either our software needs to support the native hardware that has the cec wire connected, or you need our adapter

I am confused. Libreelec uses libcec and with the newer versions CEC is working on the Orange Pi (Allwinner H6).

OrangePi/Allwinner are NOT listed on the list of native supported hardware. So is the list of supported hardware on libcec need to be updated? Or is Libreelec using some non-libcec method to do CEC on Orange Pi?

malard commented 1 year ago

I have no idea sorry, I’ve never heard of or seen this hardware, you may need to ask them how they do it?
