constant POLL cec messages
While trying to map some new buttons on my remote, I also saw the following message in the debug log:
Code:
14:53:54 T:2963207232   DEBUG: CecLogMessage - command 'POLL' was not acked by the controller
14:53:54 T:2963207232   DEBUG: CecLogMessage - >> POLL not sent
14:53:55 T:2963207232   DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << Recorder 1 (1) -> TV (0): POLL
14:53:55 T:2963207232   DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << 10

This message is written every second while I'm in the XBMC menus. While playing a file it stops.
I this critical or a normal behavior of CEC?

Please unplug the powercable from your TV, and insert it back after one minute. Should work.

Hello

I have a similar problem .... I did as you told - remove powercable for some time and it worked but i have to do it all the time .....
I found out that removing my rca cable (video ) from my TV for about 20 seconds while launching some media files on raspberry is helping but that's weird.
I cannot use hdmi because my tv doesn't have it. Maybe there is something i can do to disable "cec" or "hdmi" - maybe that's a problem...

I used usb mouse, usb keyboard, iphne constallation to control raspberry pi and it is all the same.....

My XBMC log keeps saying :

DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << Recorder 1 (1) -> TV (0): POLL
DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << Recorder 1 (1) -> TV (0): POLL
DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << Recorder 1 (1) -> TV (0): POLL

and so on...

Thanks in advance for your help . I'm really frustrated right now.
Tom

NOTE: CEC is known to be spamming a lot to the xbmc.log (I hope this will be removed in the final version of libcec)

you can easily disable CEC if you go to
System>Settings>System>Input Devices>Peripherals>Raspberry Pi CEC Adapter and deselect Enabled
done, your CEC should be disabled

RE: constant POLL cec messages
Hi,

Well i did that and still got the error .... Sad maybe there is something else. Maybe there is something with the hdmi. I am using rca only ( my tv doesn't have hdmi ) so is there any chance that i could disable hdmi and force to use only rca ?
