      Also its pretty hard to check if the TV has CEC, is there some list about it?

      i don’t know of any,

      but if u have the model number u can usually find the product info guide online.

      my TV has an on screen menu for turning on/off CEC… (doesn’t help, I can turn it on, but not off!)

        I often checked for it online with the model number, but sadly I can’t find any operation manuals

        Wait, you can turn your TV on, but not off? :o

        How is the FireTV Stick solving this? afaik they work without CEC (on/off/volume), would test that later.

          @schmaniel I think the fire stick sends infrared commands like a tv remote control

            @schmaniel Hey, today I had the luck of finding a TV like the on you looking for. I bought a LG model nr. 32LG2100 for €40 secondhand in mint condition. I looked it up and it has CEC, but it’s called Simplink for LG. Hope this helps.

              Since I have built my frame already, this TV would be a bit too big, but I found a solution for it now.
              I got a Smart Plug and the TV automatically boots up, when it lost power and gains it back :)
