CEC questions

by jmeurl

Hi,
Firstly I was wondering if anyone has experience with the Jetstream box and HDMI-CEC?

Since i would like to put away my TV remote in a drawer or something I'm also wondering if it's possible to change source using the remote for a AndroidTV box? I've seen that it can be done with a Roku. There is "tiles" in the menu called HDMI1 HDMI2 etc.

Oh, and is there any information on when we can expect the Jetstream in Europe?

Thank you

I love CEC. With home automation it's even better. Both shield TVs all I do is press the remote and tv and receiver turn on. its dope. But on some boxes it doesn't work as it should. just depends what ya got.

HDMI CEC control should not be relied upon to work 100% with any audio and video equipment from anyone. If it works semi reliably at all consider yourself lucky.

What will work for one person will be busted for someone else's distinct setup, unless you have the Exact same equipment. Even then there can be hiccups.

You would be better with a USB wireless mini dongle remote, one that also includes Infra Red learning functionality to change HDMI inputs.

Thank you for your answers. I guess I’ve been lucky with the HDMI-CEC working flawlessly on my PS4 and Apple TV.
