#RPI-CECD

This project is was a quick hack to make HDMI-CEC work with OpenElec/Raspbmc/XBMC on Raspberry Pi.

##Project status as of 2012-08-11 libcec (http://libcec.pulse-eight.com/) as of 1.8.0 have added support for the RPi. This, in combination with OpenElec replacing rpi-cecd with libcec on the RPi platform, makes this project deprecated.

I might fix issues with the current code, but I won't merge new features.

It was a fun toy project while it lasted, but good riddance.

##LG Menu Buttons Workaround For LG models lacking the back/menu buttons use the following key combos:

  • Back = Stop + Select(OK)
  • Menu = Stop + Pause

##Building:

  • Build OpenElec to get the toolchain and sysroot
  • Point $SYSROOT to the target's filesystem root
export SYSROOT=/path/to/OpenELEC.tv/build.OpenELEC-RPi.arm-devel/toolchain/armv6zk-openelec-linux-gnueabi/sysroot
  • Point $CXX to the cross compiler
export CXX=/path/to/OpenELEC.tv/build.OpenELEC-RPi.arm-devel/toolchain/bin/armv6zk-openelec-linux-gnueabi-g++
  • make
make

##How to make it work on OpenElec: ~~NOTE: rpi-cecd is included in the OpenElec RPi nightly builds as of ~2012-06-08~~

##Raspbmc It seems that the binary also work on raspbmc, although I have not tested it. Get the latest from: https://github.com/olajep/rpi-cecd/raw/binary/rpi-cecd
