    Hi

    Take your TV remote and control MP2 with it if you have CEC adapter made by Pulse-Eight. Only remote controlling part now implemented so please don't ask about device controls. Has only one setting; HDMI port.

    Plugin can be downloaded here: CECRemote

    -m

    Edit by Morpheus_xx:
    There is a first test build for new Summer'15 Update 1 release (2015-09-07) attached. But before you can use this build, you need to modify MP2-Client.exe.config:
    • Open file C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Client\MP2-Client.exe.config in a text editor (as Administrator!)
    • Change:
      <startup>
      <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5.1"/>
      </startup>
      into
      <startup useLegacyV2RuntimeActivationPolicy="true">
      <supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.5.1"/>
      </startup>
      at the end of the file.
    This is required because the CEC library is only available as .NET2, while MP2 is at .NET4.5.1.

    Already have a CEC adapter and plugin for MP2, been working well now for quite a while and would recommend it to all.
    A much tidier set up too with a thumbs up from SWMBO.

    I do not get why XBMC CEC does not require that physical adapter. Just wondering...

    It does require a CEC adapter - Think you have read of the Raspberry PI XBM builds - This board has onboard CEC-adapter - Only 1 or 2 Intel motherboards have the same thing - Hopefully we can see spread to other boards.

    @-Manfred- would you like to upload your plugin to the new download section on our homepage https://www.team-mediaportal.com/extensions/mp2-plugins? Would be good to add a few notes what the plugin does and how it needs to be installed.

    Thanks a lot, it brings MP2 forward (y)!

    Can do during the weekend. Where I should put source? Is this thread a good place? Might help other plugin devs.

    Thanks!

    You can create a branch in MP2 repo, or fork the MP2 repo and add sources there.
