Description of problem: I have only onnected my rpi with hassio installed connected with my lg TV. I have configured with hdmi_cec and cannot power off or power on the TV. I cannot also use any function inside hdmi_cec ( volume, etc)

Why don't you use the webostv component instead of hdmi_cec ? Is webos 1.4 not supported?

Can you please change the log level to debug and add here your logs (use hastebin.com) ?

Using the webos component for webos LG TV under 2.0 don´t work because the TV shutdown the Ethernet interface and this component use the Wol (Wake on Lan). The alternative is to use the HDMI_CEC. In my case I have the Rpi installed with the hass.io. The RPI has hdmi cec feature on is device. When I put on the configuration the component "hdmi_cec" and restart de HA, I see int the logs the LG TV on physical address 0.0.0.0. But I cannot shutdown or start the TV from the switch

For LG TVs (and im sure others) that don't support turning on if they are off, I would highly recommend using RS-232 and turning the TV on via serial: https://support.justaddpower.com/kb/article/36-lg-rs232-control

That is how my LG TV is setup. https://home-assistant.io/components/media_player.webostv/ You can then specify a custom turn-on action.

Additionally, if you'd rather have HDMI-CEC, please make sure it is enabled for your LGTV. LG uses the proprietary term "SIMPLINK"

Yes i now the simplink function. Is enabled.

Thank you for all support. I already figure out how to turn on the TV via HDMI CEC.

Thanks.

@colomboipl can you please share what worked so the next person with the same issue has some guidance ?

Hello, This is my configuration that actually works on my set (LG TV OLED 930V, RPi with Hass.io)

On configuration.yaml:

media_player:

• platform: webostv host: 192.168.XX.YY name: TV
  timeout: 5 filename: webostv.conf turn_on_action:
  • service: hdmi_cec.power_on entity_id: switch.TV customize: sources:
    • livetv
    • HDMI1
    • HDMI2
    • HDMI3
    • HDMI4

hdmi_cec:

With this I can Turn on and Off The TV. Then I create a automation to change thhe source from TV.

automations.yaml

alias: Switch TV Source At Power On trigger: platform: state entity_id: media_player.TV from: 'off' to: playing condition: condition: state entity_id: media_player.TV state: playing action: service: media_player.select_source entity_id: media_player.TV data: source: HDMI4

This is the solution that I can go on. Before this I had issues about turn on TV.

Configs on TV :

1. enabled Simplink and power on/off sync

@cmsimike would you mind sharing more detail on how to implement this please? And why you would recommend this over hdmi-cec? Thanks :)
