CEC stopped working in Kodi
Software
XBian version:1.0 (knockout) (kernel: Linux 4.6.7+) XBMC/Kodi version:17.0-BETA4 Git:2016-10-21-b8acb84 Overclock settings:default Hardware Device type and model (e.g. Raspberry Pi Model A/B 256/512 MB, CuBox-i i4Pro, ...):RPI 3 Power supply rating:Original power supply adapter SD card size and make/type:16Gb Network (Ethernet or wireless):Kodi using Ethernet; wireless adapter active too on different network Connected devices (TV, USB, network storage, ...):Philips TV, External USB harddisks Seagate and Hitachi Log files Link to logfile(s): 13:09:22 52.201862 T:1827103664 DEBUG: GetMappingForDevice - device (2708:1001) mapped to CEC Adapter (type = cec) 13:09:22 52.205425 T:1827103664 ERROR: Detected version of libCEC interface (30001) is lower than the supported version 30100. Problem description: CEC used to work and is not working anymore (see error above in kodi.log). At startup of Kodi it briefly displays same message on screen and basically I can not use the Phillips Remote Control to navigate Kodi. Also in System Settings menu of Kodi, Input -> Peripherals settings is grayed out so not available anymore. I have had this problem since a few weeks, but I did not have the time yet to dig into it until now. How to reproduce: The error message always pops up briefly when (re)starting Kodi. What I already tried is reinstalling CEC support following this (found in another thread in the forum): -- sudo apt-get update dpkg -l | grep cec # this lists all cec packages sudo dpkg -r --force-all cec-utils libcec libcec-dev libcec3:armhf python-libcec # unstall all cec packages , ignore everything sudo apt-get install -f # Should reinstall all cec packages -- Unfortunately it does not fix the problem. I googled the error message for any leads, but no success so far. So right now I don't know what to do to get it fixed. Any help would be appreciated.. Thanks. |

RE: CEC stopped working in Kodi
Required 3.1 CEC packages are in staging repo. So you have to enable this repo to get them
Terminal apt-cache policy libcec libcec: Installed: 3.1.0.1~xbian-1462859882 Candidate: 3.1.0.1~xbian-1462859882 Package pin: 3.1.0.1~xbian-1462859882 Version table: *** 3.1.0.1~xbian-1462859882 1001 500 mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt/ staging/rpi2-jessie armhf Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 3.0.1-1~xbian-1453442348 1001 500 mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt/ stable/rpi2-jessie armhf Packages 3.0.1-1~xbian-1438209384 1001 500 mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt/ stable/rpi2-jessie armhf Packages 3.0.1-1~xbian-1436247103 1001 500 mirror://apt.xbian.org/mirror.txt/ stable/rpi2-jessie armhf Packages |

RE: CEC stopped working in Kodi
We have 3 active repos:
1) Stable: Packages which are safe for use 2) Staging: mostly stable package, will be moved to stable soon 3) Devel: Development packages or new packages which have to be tested more. Use it for your own risk |

With the help of this gadget, you can take one step toward a clutter-free living space while still providing a basic remote control for friends and family who might not be familiar with all of a professional remote control's features.
