CEC stops working when switching source (RPi4)

  • Hi,

    I am running LibreELEC version 9.2.3 on a Raspberry Pi 4, connected to a Samsung Smart TV (HDMI1).

    Generally CEC works fine.

    If I switch to another source, such as the Spotify app, and then switch back to the Pi (HDMI1), CEC doesn't work. If I then turn the TV off and back on, it works again.

    I went over the CEC settings and couldn't find anything that makes a difference.

    Is this a known issue? Any known ways to solve or debug this?

    Thanks.

  • I think it is a problem on your side because for me with rpi4 and LG Tv I have no problem, CEC reconnect back when I return to HDMI source.

    I also have in config.txt

    hdmi_force_hotplug=1
    hdmi_ignore_cec_init=1
