CEC Use TV Remote As Controller - Still Not working.

ARC is Audio Return Channel. It allows a TV's audio to be sent back to the attached receiver via the HDMI Out of the receiver instead of having to run a separate audio line from the TV to the receiver. It's intended for use when using a TV's internal tuner
via an attached antenna or cable source.



HDMI CEC is what allows your TV's remote to control other components without actually programming the remote with the code for the other devices.



HDMI CEC pre-dates ARC by several revisions. Unfortunately, few things take advantage of it.

To take full advantage the cable/ TV box will need to be HDMI CEC. This will give Xbox One the ability to change channels via the Xbox One TV guide.
If not CEC you will have to use TV box remote to change channels.

[/quote] No, if not you will have to connect the infrared blaster to the set top box. This will allow your xbox to work as the remote control. I used to do the same thing with my media center. If you look on the back of the Xbox One you will see a port
labeled IR, that's how I know.

You can control your Set Top Box (STB) if it supports HDMI-CEC. You maybe able to control your TV, but again it needs to support HDMI-CEC.

Some STBs do not feature HDMI-CEC protocol (e.g. Sky HD STB), which means it can't be controlled via Xbox One. You need a Sky remote.

Hello Rodrigo, I have tried both energy saving and the suspend options.

Apparently this happens when you turn the system remotely by pressing the Guide button on the controller. Sometimes (not all) when you turn the system by pressing the power button on the console itself, CEC kicks in and the TV turns on. Also, resetting CEC in the settings (disabling, restarting, enabling cec and restarting) makes the Series X turn the TV, which makes me think it's not related to the TV CEC configuration, or a hardware or cable failure, since it only fails when turning the system from the controller I think it can be assumed that the problem is on the software side.

I will check the reddit, though I don't use reddit myself, for more help, thanks for the resource. I will be waiting for more responses and hopefully by me making noise here someone at microsoft notices there's a bug with CEC in their high end videogame console.

Cheers
