        So that will be my next option if i can’t get this to work.

        Do you switch it completely off at night or do you leave it with a blanc screen 24/7?
        You have an estimation of how much power i draws in a day?

          power draw. the 55 is 82 watts/hour on, .5 off
          the 43 is 65w/h on, also .5 off

            You mean 5 in standy of with a blanc screen?.
            If that’s the case it’s not worth all the trouble of trying to get CEC to work ;)

              @mdlefevere no. 0.5 (one half of one watt) is off/standby
              blanc screen is on, so 82 or 65 for me…

              I have not measured power consumption

              I have 5 SBCs plugged into the same circuit (w the 55in, 4 hdmi ports)
              pi0
              2 - pi3 (1 runs homeseer to control my lighting)
              pi 4
              odroid

              and another pi4 I just got with the 7in touch screen and case

              and then jetson nano in the hall (with the 43in)

              and a mac mini
              and my intel desktop (never off, but I power off the screens at night when i leave the office)

                Thanks for the info.

                I’ve setup a Pi3 with CEC and this seems to be working.
                Even after a long time the TV turns on. My Samsung also instantly recognized the Pi3 as a CEC device unlike the Pi4. It had some struggle with the new Pi.

                Could this be a Pi4 related issue?, or just Samsung?.

                  @mdlefevere no idea… CEC doesn’t work from pi3, but does partially from pi4…
                  not from any other SBC

                    or HDMI cable?

                      Weird. I switched back to a Pi3 and it’s working fine now.
                      Connected it with a HDMI<>HDMI cable to the HDMI Arc port on the TV. The TV instantly popped up with a CEC connected Raspberry.

                      Left it for over a night and just now it perfectly started.
