randomly turns on TV - doesn't save config on reboot - signs itself out of plex

Hi

I’m seeing some strange issues…

My rpi2 has been running plex just fine for a long time but I’m starting to see some issues lately…

first of all it randomly turns on the TV once in a while like plex reboots or somehow sends a signal to the tv that there’s active content playing.

Also the settings I use on Rasplex seem to disappear when I reboot so I have to set stuff like video calibration, language, timezone etc. etc every time.

and rasplex signs out of plex as well…

has anyone seen anything like this?

oh and performance seems to be impaired as well in general when browsing movies, tv shows etc.
playback seems ok.

I just updated to 0.7.1 earlier tonight… Watched some shows… all seemed good.

Turned off the TV and Receiver and went upstairs. I come down 15 minutes later and the TV and receiver are back on showing a non-dimmed (default screensaver setting) PHT/RasPlex listing… The same one I was looking at when I shut off the TV/Receiver awhile ago.

So I turned the TV & Receiver back off thinking I was losing my mind, grabbed a drink from the kitchen and lo and behold, I come back past the living room and the TV and Receiver are back on again.

There’s definitely something funky going on… (That and I apparently need to really remap my PS3 Bluetooth BD Remote - a lot of buttons are broken now)

What can I gather (logs etc) to help?

I don’t know if my issue is fixed but first time I upgraded, I just stuck the SD card in my PC, and formatted the partition (not the whole card) and used getrasplex to burn the new 0.7.1 image…

After the above issues I again formatted but this time I formatted the whole card (using partition wizard)… rasplex splits up the card in 2 partitions… I don’t know if the 2nd is being used.

So with a completely formatted card I again used getrasplex and created a new copy of 0.7.1…

so far… no issues… apart from some subs being WAY off… but that doesn’t have to relate to rasplex it self… :slight_smile:

So maybe try what I did and see…

I still won’t say that I’m issue free but something seems to have improved…It saves my settings, stays logged in, hasn’t turned on TV yet…

Have you seen this topic http://forums.plex.tv/discussion/174109/0-7-0-turns-on-tv-continously#latest

I saw the other topic, but because it was a change between 0.7.0 and 0.7.1 I thought it warranted mentioning. I can solve it if I basically disable all HDMI-CEC entirely, but that’s not ideal either.

More CEC updates in next release.
