Thanks Kostaman. Sorry for late reply but not been available for a coujple of weeks. I did take a look at the config.ini file and it has a single line WOL=0 So it is already disable it appears. Still have this annoying problem losing CEC and ARC between the TV and Onkyo AVR requiring a reboot of the TX9 Pro box running 9.2.3 which then clears thsio problem which comes back sometime later for no apparent reason I can put my finger on. And happens again even though I leave the TX9 box running all the time when not being used.
Some more test I have carried our shows that if I power down the box but leave it connected to the power then I lose CEC/ARC TV to AVR, so this thus appears not to be a CoreELEC problem but something in the box hardware that is interfering with the Onkyo CEC/ARC funcfion. BUT if I disconnect the power enitrely from the TX9 or unplug the HDMI lead to the Onkyo then the CEC/ARC comes back fine between TV and AVR ?? So does that help in giving a clue as to solving this problem that others here, plus my friend with a GT King box, also have too ??
Thanks in advance for any response to this problem or any others with any relevent input
The /flash/config.ini file deals with WOL and is the only line present. Mine was set at WOL=0 and was mentioned to me to ensure that this WOL was switched off. Yes I wondered why that was too.
Thanks Portisch. Will have to look at the licCEC 4.0.7. But where do I download it from ?? Or will it already be available in the .config folder though I doubt that ?? I will take a peak.
You only can modify config.ini. the max_freq_a55 is for the SM1 SoC added.
You can set max_freq_a55=xxxx (SM1) in config.ini and it will be handled correct by boot.ini.
Internal max_freq_a55 is same as max_freq_a53 so you also can use max_freq_a53=xxxx (G12*)
So do I need to add the line cec_func_config=‘00’ to my config.ini file to disable all CEC functions or is it already by default set to all off = ‘00’ ??
Also remember that I have a Tanix TX9 Pro box, not an Odroid so assume this all still applies to my box. Also just awaiting deliver of an X96 Max + S905X3 4/64GB box which is ridiculously cheap for such a high spec box
As the Tanix TX9 Pro is a S912 SoC I am not sure if it can be disabled completely. At least not in suspend mode as CE does not have control over the bootloader bl301 blob. All other devices using Amlogic-ng image including bl301 injected and/or Odroid N2/C4 also support disable of CEC for Wakeup and can be set in Kodi CoreELEC Settings.
so set in config.ini (if not available in CE settings):
cec_func_config='0'
should disable it, yes
Different libCEC versions can be chosen by open a SSH connection and type:
remove any libcec config (default 4.0.4 will be used):
rm -rf /storage/.config/libcec-4.*.conf
enable libcec-4.0.5:
touch /storage/.config/libcec-4.0.5.conf
enable libcec-4.0.7:
touch /storage/.config/libcec-4.0.7.conf
When CEC is working after booting into CE and CEC is stopping working later it’s more related to libCEC then the CEC driver itself.
