Regression - CEC Volume Controls

1st Official Post

    Hallo,

    I noticed a regression in the CEC Volume Controls.

    Starting from Milhouse Build #1107 I no longer can control the volume of my AMP from withing kodi (+/- Keys on the keyboard)

    Instead it just adjusts the internal kodi volume. Audio-Passthrough still works fine.

    But while Audio-passthrouh is active (i.e. when playing a video), the volume keys do nothing but show the volume indicator, the indicator itself does not change in this case.

    I am using the Pulse-Eight USB-CEC-Adapter on regular x86_x64 hardware.

    here are some versions I tested until I found the breaking build with some logs.

    Code
    #0916 OK
#1101 OK
#1106 OK http://ix.io/1uEZ
#1107 Bad http://ix.io/1uET
#1108 Bad 
#1110 Bad 
#1113 Bad 
#1126 Bad

    Side note: Adjusting the volume via the RPC-Webapi was always only controlling the kodi internal volume, never my AMP. Would be cool to see that fixed too ;)

    Cheers,

    As Milhouse offers his builds via the Kodi forum, it's recommended that any bugs/quirks/funny stuff is reported directly via that forum thread.

    Thanks in advance and don't forget include a full debug log. :)

    As far as the USB CEC adapter is concerned, has it been updated to the latest firmware?

    ah thanks, my bad. i will take my issue to the kodi forum then.

    so the logs i attached in the code-section are not enough, correct? i would need to enable the debug mode first? ok, will do :)

    You are right, the cec adapter firmware is not the latest (v4 2012-12-06), there is a v7 2017. I guess i will try updating it first.

    Thank you!
