Whereas if you'd bought an LG TV you'd punch the volume control and nothing would happen on the Denon. Both devices claim to support CEC. With an older Sony TV, only some CEC messages worked (I think enough for a Chromecast to be able to switch the active input).
I think they forgot the "consumer" part of "consumer electronics control".
- brokenmachine 6y agoI have a Denon AVR and an LG TV and the TV controls the volume on my AVR. I have experienced the pain of broken CEC with my previous Hisense TV though.
- adrianmonk 6y agoYeah, I don't know if it's my AVR or TV's fault, but every now and then the TV spontaneously becomes unable to control the AVR. I've never been able to pin down the exact steps required, but through some combination of power cycling things, unplugging HDMI cables, and redoing setup menu stuff, it starts working again. It really takes away from the appeal of a convenience feature if it requires periodic battles to beat the equipment into submission.
