Standby.py not sending cec standby command

SpeedfreakR · 1 April 2020 13:40

I have been busy tweaking my Vero 4k+ box and a have come so far until I got stuck on this issue.

Before I explain, I did read the 2 topics that contain this problem:

I have made an standby.py scripts that contains the following:
import xbmc xbmc.executebuiltin('XBMC.CECStandby')

But the tv does not turn off. Why not?

I know cec is working, if I wake vero/kodi then the tv turns on and if i run this command echo "standby 0" | cec-client -s the tv turns off. So I think kodi does not execute the command?

Kodi does execute the standby.py, I can see that in de kodi log.

The wake.py works fine.

Can you guys help me?

It’s hard to tell without seeing the Kodi log.

In settings>system>input>peripherals>CEC adapter> is “devices to power off during shutdown” set correctly?

And I will double check de cec settings. But I don’t do a shutdown, I’m using suspend…

EDIT: OK,

Was the solution! Thanks you! Never thought off it because it said shutdown and not suspend…
