Keep XBMC running without HDMI? - skok - 21st Nov, 2013 04:31 AM
Hope this isn't a dupe, but I couldn't find it.
My setup RPi-(hdmi)->receiver-(hdmi)->tv
When I turn off/standby my TV, the receiver also goes off via CEC, which is the wanted behaviour. Problem is, in that scenario the RPi loses it's monitor, which results in XBMC exiting - at least there are only login-prompts on ^C{2-12}. So when I power on the tv and thus the receiver again, I also need to restart XBMC as an X11 process or completly reset the RPi.
That's of course quite ugly, but for powersaving reasons I'd like to have a proper solution to this. Is there any?

@skok
in XBMC go into settings->system->input devices. edit CEC adapter and switch all the actions to IGNORE.

Thanks, will try that later on tonight. Quick question, other CEC commands, ie. remote control, won't be affected by this?

RC should be unaffected.
you will see what kind of actions this are when you open the menu.
