"Error loading sources for extInput:cec" when more 3 or more CEC devices connected #46

Closed Nordikk closed 4 years ago

Nordikk commented 5 years ago

When 3 or more CEC devices are connected, it won't load any CEC sources at all. If only 2 CEC devices are connected, it works as expected.

Hm, I have 4 CEC devices, two are on one HDMI input even.. The error message doesn't have a stack trace does it? That indicates the TV simply sent an error back for some reason.

Although.. I do have an exceptionally bad way of checking for errors which is checking for the word "error" in the whole HTTP result of the TV 😅 Is any of your HDMI inputs called "Terror TV" or something? 😁

Nordikk commented 5 years ago

Nope, no stack trace :/

And no, none of my inputs is called like that 😂

My KD-65XE9005 is connected via HDMI 3/ARC to an AVR Sony STR-DH790 to which a PS4, a Sony UHD Blu-ray player, an ATV 4 and an ATV 4k are also connected. However if I put in the config the cec I also get in the log the error message and no CEC input shows.

My guess this is because it takes longer to get the CEC inputs because the TV is actually checking if something is connected on the HDMI ports when that request comes in.. Might be that in combination with a long boot due to other plugins the request simply gets lost.

This might tie in with https://github.com/normen/homebridge-bravia/issues/36# (see bottom)

Is this still the case in 2.0?

mmax-nl commented 4 years ago

Yes, still the case.

normen commented 4 years ago

Yes, still the case.

Did it actually work at all for you at some point? Note OP describes an issue where he can see a few devices. For you it rather sound like theres no CEC support in your TV

mmax-nl commented 4 years ago

I have never tried to "unplug" my other CEC devices to verify if it works with just 2 of them. I'll try later today as soon as my family stop watching TV :)

PS: in the meanwhile I changed my setup. My KD-65XE9005 is connected via HDMI 3/ARC to an Samsung Soundbar Q90R to which a Sony PS4 and an Apple ATV 4k are also connected, and via HDMI 1 and 2 to a Sony UHD Blu-ray player, and an Apple ATV 4 .

The latest version 2.0.3 gives a little more log output when this happens, maybe you could post here if you get any additional info.

Nordikk commented 4 years ago

It actually works for me in v2

Cool, closing this then
