sending abort with opcode a4 and reason 'unrecognised opcode' to TV #615

Open ballle98 opened 1 year ago

ballle98 commented 1 year ago

I'm working on a project here to bridge CEC to LIRC to control the volume on my ancient Yamaha receiver. https://github.com/ballle98/cec-lirc

There are several CEC 1.4 Audo opcodes that are known but report unknown

/* CEC 1.4 */
  CEC_OPCODE_REQUEST_SHORT_AUDIO_DESCRIPTORS  = 0xA4,

This is log for 0xA4

You will not be able to achieve this with current libcec. It lacks the features you need. The problem is that you might send commands to the TV but their answer will get a "Unrecognized opcode." since you cannot tell libcec not to handle a specific command.

I have just created PR #617 to address this issue. See issue #612 for more details.

You can also find my python implementation here : https://github.com/gmsoft-tuxicoman/py-z906/

You can probably reuse cecclient.py and base your ceclirc.py code from z906cec.py from my repository. HTH
