Hi All!
I'm using Rasplex 0.2.2 with a Samsung TV (C576) and it works fine. But there is a small thing and I am going crazy about it. The Raspberry Pi is connect via USB, so I don't need a power supply. After power up the TV the Raspberry Pi change the source to hdmi. This is not always the source I need. Sometime I realy watch tv.
I wounder if there is a way to configure this behaviors?
did you check the cec settings?
0.22 has been doing this for me also. This never occurred on previous versions. Input source always switches to RasPlex irrespective of whichever input source i currently have selected...and i have the same setup, connected via USB. So every time i switch my TV on, even to watch a DVD, Rasplex forces itself to be the current input source about 30 seconds after switching TV on.
I know many TVs have a feature of HDMI(I forget the exact name), but it allows devices to make themselves the appropriate source(alternately they can turn off the TV too). I don't know anyone that uses the feature. But it sounds like your TV has the feature(mine does too). Many TVs can have that feature disabled via a menu setting.
The intent of the feature was that you turn the TV on, then power on your DVD player... and automagically the DVD player becomes the source for your TV input. Naturally it sounds great in theory but in practice it doesn't always go so well.
did you check the cec settings?
Which settings do you mean? I can only enable or disable hdmi-cec on my tv. Are there settings on Rasplex?
OK. I found a solution.
The first time where the source is set is directly after reboot and the second time is after starting XBMC.
Disable switch source after power up the Raspberry Pi
login to rasplex via ssh
User root
Pasword rasplex
remount /flash
mount -o remount,rw /flash
add hdmi_ignore_cec_init=1 to /flash/config.txt (perhaps with vi)
mount -o remount,ro /flash
reboot
Disable switch source when starting rasplex
Preferences->System->Input devices->Peripherals->CEC Adapter->Make XBMC the aktive source when starting (no point set)
