Power via CEC #5

Closed bartbovendeerdt closed 6 years ago

bartbovendeerdt commented 6 years ago

Using the following config.json, I get the this error:

[2018-9-18 18:30:09] [SamsungTV] TV status: on [2018-9-18 18:30:39] [SamsungTV] CONNECTING [2018-9-18 18:30:40] [SamsungTV] CONNECTED [2018-9-18 18:31:00] [SamsungTV] Power via WIFI does not support powering on

"power": { "name": "TV aan/uit", "enableCEC": "true" },

Any idea's?

Kind regards, Bart

Hi, thanks for using the plugin!

Try { "enableCEC": true } - without the double quotes.

I guess the flag that enabled CEC is being compared to the boolean true and the use of quote marks makes it a string. I'll try to update this behaviour to make it more flexible. For now doing as I've mentioned above should resolve the issue.

Hope it will work for you :)

Tried that.. didn't work.

Fixed this by running sudo apt-get install cec-utils. 👍

It is working... kinda. The flag now correctly switches you to hdmi-cec based power options. But it seems that the cec-client tool is not installed. To confirm that, can you check what is the result of invoking cec-client -d 1 in the terminal?

Are you using raspberry PI? If yes and the cec-client will not be found try apt-get install cec-utils.

Ha! Great :D We figured it out in the same time! Nice job :)
