Hi Chewitt, thanks for all your advices but I finally gave up and returned the devices. Besides problems with CEC it also had (I guess) some error because sometimes it found the NVMe SSD disk and sometimes not - it was just not there, it could not boot and ended up in bios. I bought Homatics Box R 4K Plus instead, wich is recommended as on of the currently best available Kodi boxes. And after years of using LibreELEC I switched to CoreELEC as they has a dedicated image for this box (sorry). And it runs perfectly on the first try, incl. the HDMI CEC. Thanks for all your support.

I forgot to mention the Asus PN42 box has the infrared sensor but I am not sure how to use it in the setup I have: KODI box -> Denon AV receiver -> Samsung TV/One remote. The remote controls the volume +- of the Denon, which also passes CEC commands to KODI box. I am not sure if it can be configured to send IR commands to both Denon and KODI/ASUS box at the same time.

Hi, I did a fresh install with https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/LibreE…-12.80.2.img.gz but it did not help. Still there is no CEC Adapter in peripherals settings in KODI. The question is what to do next.

Option 1: order the CEC adapter from Pulse Eight - the problem is it is available only in US so price to deliver to Europe incl. tax and VAT would be like $90. The box itself was $340 so final price tag would be $430.

Option 2: return the Asus box (16GB RAM, 256 GB SSD) and order some Amlogic device or Raspberry PI5. In case of Amlogic with 4/32 GB it is like returing 10+ years back. In case of Raspberry I did not find any suitable case, which allows for both the NVMe disc and passive cooling. What would you suggest?

Great, where do I find it? In nightly builds? Thanks

Hi Chewitt, I was wrong, the device finally booted and I see the version installed as LibreELEC (chewitt) version 12.80.2. However the CEC is still not present in settings/system/input/pheripherials nor it is working. Any idea? I want to avoid buing the Pulse eight CEC adapter but maybe it will be only option.

In addition: somewhere I read that the libcec is by default disabled in LibreELEC generic build and that adding this to build options should help: CEC_FRAMEWORK_SUPPORT="yes"

Hi Chewitt, many thanks. I put the file into /storage/.update and rebooted. However now the device does not boot at all, just jumps into bios after restart. Would you be so kind a prepare the .img file from it so I can burn it on USB stick and do the clean reinstall? Thanks. Pavel

Hi, I recently upgraded my KODI hardware to Asus ExpertCenter PN42 (Intel N100 processor), which states it does have the HDMI CEC support (there is a dedicated settings in BIOS). However, the KODI player does not respond to any button presses on my Samsung One Remote. In the previous setup with Venztech V12 Ultra (Amlogic S912) box it worked well. Moreover, there is no CEC Adapter in Kodi's settings/system/input/pheriperals. I am using the latest LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-12.0.2.img.gz. To have it a bit more complicated the KODI box is connected to Denon receiver, which is then connected to Samsung TV. However in this setup the previous Venztech box worked well with CEC. Any suggestions? Thanks

wrxtasy Hi wrxtasy, I am using your Libreelec 8.2.4.1 (Kodi v 17) on my Amlogic 912 box (Venztech V12 ultra) as it is the only one I found in which I do not experience judder when plaing 24p videos. I just wanted to ask if you plan to make a build with Kodi 18 or maybe even 19? Thanks
