cec hdmi

  • im curious to know why when i send command for tv to to turn on via a command or script it takes a few seconds for the hdmi cec to send that command. however waking the tv after screensaver is instant volume up down is instant when it is not me sending the commands manually via script.

    how can i make sure my commands are instant.

    i have tried

    echo "on 5" | cec-client -s -d 1

    this takes a good 5 seconds or so to turn on

  • mine takes about 5-6 seconds but that is from complete power off. i am assuming it takes some time for the box to turn on and cec to become active and then to send the signal.

    however when it is on standby as you say then why is the signal sent so quickly when i press a button for kodi to become active which is instantaneously.
