[x86-64] LibCEC LG C9 Weirdness (Pulse-Eight)

Hi i'm running LE 12 and after doing a big wipe and reboot including pulling some cables from my tv i seem to have borked my seemingly rock solid CEC support i had on my HTPC.

I'm using an Intel NUC with a pulse eight adapter thats pressed onto the board, that's not been touched at all.

Now when starting kodi - it looks like the Pulse Eight tries to connect and then eventually this says connection lost with my remote never having connected. It also takes so much longer to switch to this specific input 30-40 seconds than it previously did.

Its tough because when i reconnected my HTPC my TV started trying to do the device auto connector and classed it as a blu ray player. I'm not sure if my issue is with the tv or with the HTPC and libcec, not sure if anyone with an LG OLED is able to help say how they've got their HTPC set up and what the tv recognises the box as.

I did see a message just before too saying that the firmware of libcec could be upgraded and to check out the pulse-eight blog but i couldn't see anything

I'm running libcec version 4.0.7.

Just in case anyone googles this in future.

My fix was to cycle down the power of EVERYTHING on the tv including the tv.
Pull out the HDMIs

Slowly cycle devices back up one by one and make sure SIMPLINK is enabled on the TV and quickstart + is disabled.

TV will recognise the device as KODI when you power it on and after a few seconds plug in the HDMI

LG TVs are a flakey nightmare essentially.
