The page you linked to is meant for hardware device makers; ie. Nvidia, to tell then how to implement HDMI-CEC in Android 5.0+. It details certain services that system apps could access and what the device maker need to provide to make it work, but nothing mentioned is really accessible to plain old apps. As far as I can tell, there is no defined API for apps use CEC. I did find some info about accessing native libraries on a device to use CEC, but those libraries are very device specific, and that info I think is from before Android 5 and TIF. In short, there really is no way for me to implement what you want. -------------- Squeezebox apps for webOS, Android and Windows Phone, http://www.angrygoatapps.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wt0's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=18760 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98049 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
