Seeing as Mythtv is still on libcec1 can anyone provide details or the<br>
files to install a libcec v1 compatible version?<br>
<br>
I've also read that installing libcec v2 additionally to libcec v1 breaks<br>
mythtv, is this still correct information?<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

It's a pain. I've compiled libcec-daemon and use that instead of comppiling MythTV with libcec. libcec-daemon provides an input device so the X server merges it with keyboard input and all X clients can use it, a bit like the modern mce usb kernel drivers that don't use LIRC. It's also a lot easer to fiddle with libcec-daemon to tune it for your requirements than recompiling MythTV.<br>
