Agreed CEC is broken in this build. There seem to be a number of users reporting this in separate posts. I guess everyone should be uploading their debug logs in order for this one to be fixed.
prwnd Can you try disconnecting TV from mains for a minute and retrying?
Also see this post: How do I make additional buttons on my Panasonic remote work?
Panasonic sending PVR button presses is a choice the TV makes (you can affect it with the magic button code)
and it may have just got disabled.
No effect, CEC does not work on this version as it should, or as it did work on v7.95.2. (RPi3 & Panasonic TV)
CEC is completely broken on my Wetek play box with LE7.95.3.
I'm experiencing the same issues with a rpi3, Panasonic TV and lg soundbar. Cec is disconnected when the TV has been turned off, a reboot fixes it. However, same as prwnd, the lower half of my remote is not working.
I've never had these issues until 7.95.3
There have been some libcec changes and some firmware changes between Jarvis and Krypton.
If you are having trouble with CEC on Pi, you can try reverting the firmware back. Download the following two file:
start.elf?raw=true
fixup.dat?raw=true
and replace the ones on the sdcard (take a copy of the old files in case you want to switch back after testing).
These files should be visible when the sdcard is inserted into a PC with an sdcard reader (assuming a direct LibreELEC install, rather than a NOOBS install).
Power off the TV from mains for a minute. Check you are seeing a problem. Revert the firmware. Power off the TV from mains for a minute. Report if any difference in behaviour.
I just tested this and it has resolved the CEC issues on my RPi3. Just to confirm this was all working on 7.95.2 so it seems a change in firmware between that and .3 broke it. Out of interest how does this get fixed when it was introduced by a 3rd party?
Many thanks for your help on this
It fixed all the issues for me as well! And I would also like to reiterate that the issues started at 7.95.3 and I have been running 7.95.1 and .2 as well.
Thanks for your help!

I'm having the same issue on WEtek Play, is there a fix for wetek play?
For details see: thread-4845.html

Same here with Wetek Core. I have been using Android so far, but since the PlayStore KODI Krypton update screwed up the hw acceleration, I switched to Libreelec on SD. Now CEC is not working properly. It sort-of starts and works for a few seconds, but then it stops working. Yesterday it worked for a few hours before stopping. Sometimes it starts when I reboot Libreelec, sometimes not. Both TV (Philips Easylink) and KODI (settings-peripherals) options are turned on.
Is there anythong that can be done? I hate juggling more remotes than necessary.
Anyone tried 8.0? Still Firmware from post 8 needed there?

CEC works fine for me on LE 8 with RPi 2.
According LE blog post discussion, yes - for some of installations, particulary people with Panasonic TV. I would save those files, just to have backup in case of affected installation.

Perfect Solution, thanx a lot 
It's a shame that this BUG is still present in 8.0 after many reports on 7.95.3 
Late response, but yes, the issues are persisting with the 8.0 release (at least for me). Sometimes CEC magically starts working immediately after using Kore to remote control Kodi, sometimes it takes a reboot, I haven't been able to spot a pattern there yet.
CEC problem
I have a Raspberry Pi3 connected to a LG 42LM6200 TV thru HDMI.
On the last version of Libreelec with Kodi 16 the CEC function correctly
With latest version (8.0.0) CEC is very strange.
1. While watching broardcast TV the CEC will switch to the Pi by its self
2. While switched to the Pi but with no activity the screen saver tries to
operate but come straight back to life again as thought there is constant activity
happening somewhere maybe from the CEC
I have tried the fix above even using the two files from version 7.0.3
but no fix
Any help would be appreciated
Cheers
