No. It has bluetooth and wifi, but this is not related to your query. As long as your pi is connected to your TV via HDMI then CEC will work. The TV ‘passes’ the remote signal to the pi (thus the use of the remote that comes with this TV; you can have a receiver in between the pi and the TV also). It works perfectly with rasplex. I am trying Plex Media Player (1.06) on the pi and it doesn’t work perfectly.

Ah okkkkkk! Nice ! Now i understand, thank man ! I order the Raspberry Pie 3 now !

Correct, HDMI CEC works great with Rasplex. I use it with my Panasonic TV. Just make sure you check your settings on your TV so that CEC is enabled and will allow the commands to pass through to the RPi3.

Only if the TV supports CEC, not all Samsung TVs do (I have 1 in the bedroom that doesn’t that was bought after the one in the living room that does). If your Samsung tv is a smart TV it should be fine.

Yes yes i have it because i already try that on my ps 3 :slight_smile:

Thank ! It’s ordered !

If you are not happy using CEC then have a look at the RemotePi Board from MSL Digital.
