Yes it is. Has an ethernet port which is connected to lnmce internal network, but no detection (KDL 40W600B)

Reset the pipes to connect to the generic HDMI TV at the correct ports, rather than the KDL device and I would expect input changes to work.  Be sure all the pets are set correctly on the generic HDMI devices as well.

Possible I am bit slow, can you elaborate a bit more " generic HDMI TV at the correct ports"?

This is the HDMI CEC TV device?

phenigma

Yes.  If you want to use CEC control you have to connect the AV Pipes to the HDMI CEC devices.  You shouldn't have the KDL template/device in use at all to properly utilize CEC control.

Yes it is
Got it to work. Input switches, and controls the kodi device as expected. The cable box is not hdmi cec controllable, but when I switch to that, it works via infrared. On to the other setup in the bedroom, which I have a theory on why it does not work

Very nice!  I also have mixed CEC and non CEC devices, it's great to control then all from a single remote!
