[RPi5] Remote Not Working Since LE 13

Quote from Da Flex

Our nightly builds are very stable, they are just not tested as much as the stable ones.

Make a backup from LE 12, and if something goes wrong with LE 13, you can go back by update folder method.

Hi,

I've upgraded, but my remote is no longer recognized, so I can't use it. do you know what could have happened ?

Quote from Da Flex

You probably made a key mapping for the remote. This should be part of your LE 12 backup. Try to load it from LE 13.

Yes that's correct, the remote.xml file is still in the same location. So it should work.

EDIT:

Here last log: https://paste.libreelec.tv/frank-dragon.log

Do you use IR (LIRC) or CEC for the remote?

CEC, but how can I really know. In any case it worked before the update to 13 nightly

I noticed that the version of cec adapter is 4.0.7. on my rpi3 (osmc) it is 6.0.2

The initialization of the CEC adapter has a bug. On your working LE 12.0.1:

In the working log, the CEC adapter is registered at /dev/cec1, in the non-working log at Linux.

I've already reported the bug to the devs. Stay tuned.

Ok, if I can't do anything on my side. I'll wait with my rpi3 again

Quote from HiassofT

Use the other HDMI port. CEC is only supported on the first HDMI port (HDMI-A-1, the one next to the power connector).

LE 12.0.1 contained a change to support CEC on both ports, but kodi didn't cope with this well so this had to be dropped again.

so long,

Hias

You had to think of it 😁. It actually works there.
