CEC

Just wondering if anyone out there has explored the CEC support...

I've tried cec-client (within the Ubuntu image) against our aging Panasonic but it has problems getting replies to PING commands and the like and ultimately quits out. Just curious if anyone has had a better experience with cec-client in particular?

HDMI-CEC would be so cool! Even more with the RetroPi image to come!

CEC should be supported: http://linux-meson.com/doku.php#supported_wip_soc_families
Make sure the pin on the 3 pin header is connected properly to output via HDMI rather than the 40 pin header.

How do we know the 3 pin header is in the right position. Is it going to be connecting the two pins closer or farther from the USB ports?

Is this the same pinout as the S805X?
