I don’t have any evidence that the Vero V is causing the CEC lockups I saw over the past day. I had the 2 Veros connected to the same TV and the frequency of CEC lockups increased considerably. When I shut down the Vero 4K+ everything recovered automagically. This led me to believe the problem continues to be with the Vero 4K+ and not the new Vero V. Please see my previous post on the connections when the problems occurred.
I have now removed the Vero 4K+ and moved the Vero V to HDMI port 1 (where the 4K+ used to be connected). I don’t expect any CEC problems with the Vero V, but I will update the thread if I observe anything interesting.
