For example, without modification, the same controls may be used by Visual BASIC, Visual C++, National Instruments LabVIEW, CEC TestPoint, Borland C++ Builder, Excel and many more.

Sending CEC commands via command line. I dont know if it is of use for you but maybe it is a starting point. Or [quit] to quit the CEC test client.

My master plan is to be able to send CEC commands from my raspberry pi to do things such as turn on/off the tv as well as other devices connected to the TV. Then I will be adding voice recognition to send these commands...that's for another day. I have read up on CEC but from what I've gathered it seems like you can't send CEC commands directly through the command line without the CEC usb adapter? I have installed the cec-client and libCEC library on my pi but when I run cec-client -l it shows no devices.

My question is, how can I send CEC commands via the command line to my tv from the pi without the adapter? Am I missing some basic element about CEC?

UPDATE

In addition to the posts below here is a link that asked in the PI portion of stackoverflow which has some more CEC commands that I have put within my .bashrc to turn the tv on/off and change the input

Recent versions of libcec will recognize the Raspberry Pi hardware as a CEC adapter.
To send control commands through the command line, basically:

will power on device 0 (ie your TV)
Check out cec-client interactive shell for more complex commands

You can pipe commands to the cec-client binary

For completeness, these are some other things that you can do

List connected devices

Check all available CEC commands

Hi FreFir,

First, you may check for the compatibility of the program with Windows 7 from the following link:

You may try installing the program in Windows XP Compatibility mode and check if that fixes the issue.

1. Right click the installation file and select Properties.

If, installing the program in compatibility mode does not fix the issue, I’m afraid, you may have to contact the manufacturer for further support. Gokul - Microsoft Support
