@KristjanESPERANTO to be honest with you I am not sure it respects the standard code etiquette MM expects of it’ modules.
Is there someone who can curate it, and take care of it better? :)

Hello everyone,

This is a module I created for the MagicMirror, in order to be able to control it via the TV remote using the HDMI-CEC protocol.

I know there are a lot of possibilities to send commands to your magic mirror, but most either require a webserver, or a app (like telegram) in order to send commands to the mirror.

This module aim to completly remove the need for any extra integrations, and allows you to use the TV remote as you would for a normal “media center” app.

Bellow is a link to the module. I would be very happy if you find this module usefull, and if you wish to add new features to it, I am open for any sugestions.

MMM-CEC-Control

Take care,
Have a great day!

Below I uploaded the git repo for the module. Let me know if it works fine for you :)

The TV I am using is a Samsung Smart TV, but you should be able to listen for CEC comunication via HDMI and find the codes specific for your TV

MMM-CEC-Control

Hey guys,

I recently installed a MagicMirror in my workplace workshop, and i needed a way, other then voice control, or mobile app/commands, while it is the active video source of the TV.

So I looked into the HDMI-CEC protocol, and discovered that the Pi is actually capable of intercepting the said protocol.

Going forward from this, I wrote a module that makes the Pi the active device and “posts” this to the TV via CEC, thus making the TV, forward any remote control commands the TV receives to the HMDMI port as well, considering the Pi beeing a playback device.

If anyone is intereseted in controling their MagicMirror via a ordinary TV remote, let me know, and we will try and upload the code to a git repo separatelly.
