Controlling Rasperry PI /XMBC/KODI Using TV Remote using HDMI CEC


HDMI-CEC allows devices connected to your TV through HDMI ports to communicate back-and-forth with your TV. The devices can have some control over the TV, and the TV can have some control over the devices. This means you could control your Blu-ray player through your TV remote, for example. Or devices can automatically change your TV’s input when they need to do something.


Samsung - Anynet+
Sony - BRAVIA Link or BRAVIA Sync
Sharp - Aquos Link
Hitachi - HDMI-CEC
AOC - E-link
Pioneer - Kuro Link
Toshiba - Regza Link or CE-Link
Onkyo - RIHD (Remote Interactive over HDMI)
LG - SimpLink
Panasonic - VIERA Link or HDAVI Control or EZ-Sync
Philips - EasyLink
Mitsubishi - NetCommand for HDMI
Runco International - RuncoLink

Note: Buy a Good Quality cable supporting CEC standard, Some Low quality cables dont have enough 
wire to carry CEC Signals.I have old cable and i i pressed VIerra Link on Panasonic TV it was coming "Feature not available".After changing cable it displayed The "Player "
i boiught one from Amazon at Rs 150 and its works great - Ultraprolink Upl Hdmi - Hdmi Cable (2M)

Now with TV scrolls button i can control Raspberry PI and even do search using T9 buttons on remote.
