Samsung TV JU6400

[ageorgios]

On a Samsung TV the behaviour is odd state tv:off homebridge:off -turnon-> tv:on homebridge:on state tv:on homebridge:on -turnoff-> tv:on homebridge:off state tv:on homebridge:off -turnon-> tv:off homebridge:on

this works:

$ cec-client
standby 0 | on 0

also when using address 5 on the homebridge plugin my soundbar is not recognized but standby 5 | on 5 work

Actually I think the behavior of setOn is inverted.

I resolved it by removing the -m monitor option and by making the timeout 3000ms

can you explain?

If you change the timeout to 3000ms, but leave the -m option, does that make it work? Also, did you resolve both the tv and the soundbar behavior? Re: soundbar, do you have it configured to control power or volume?

[ageorgios]

You are right I can leave the -m option and it still works

but my soundbar does not work:

  {
      "accessory": "cec",
      "address": 5,
      "name": "Soundbar",
      "type": "volume"
    }

What happens if you run cec-client and give the command tx e5:71

This should request the audio status from your sound bar. The expected response from this is apparently not coming back.

tx e5:71

it seems it does not respond from 'give audio status'

it is a samsung soundbar

the vol commands and mute work though with cec-client

I got the same message, error: No REPORT_POWER_STATUS received.

But when I use CEC-client and send tx e5:71, I got this.

DEBUG: [ 1801] << requesting power status of 'TV' (0) TRAFFIC: [ 1801] << 15:47:43:45:43:54:65:73:74:65:72 TRAFFIC: [ 1801] << 10:8f TRAFFIC: [ 2265] >> 01:90:00 waiting for input DEBUG: [ 2265] TV (0): power status changed from 'unknown' to 'on' DEBUG: [ 2265] expected response received (90: report power status) DEBUG: [ 2265] >> TV (0) -> Recorder 1 (1): report power status (90) TRAFFIC: [ 2265] << e5:71

looks right for me, also I can turn my samsung tv on and off true the CEC-client.
