with the latest changes it is possible to remotely control the opipc with vnc ?

If you mean vnc as remote desktop, then answer is same as before. If you managed to get gui, you certainly won't get video.

Why does vnc sound familiar to me, isn't that what we use to use to communicate with Drembox DVB-S satellite receivers with?

Hi

I have tested CEC update with two panasonic's.
CEC seems to work as it should with one of them (CEC plugin connects to "TV").
But the other Panasonic (a brand new 4K version, produced by Vestel), on/off and select correct HDMI works, but no buttons works. Openelec CEC Plugin connect to the  "CEC plugin".

best regards

If I remove the hdmi cable and put it back , CEC stops working and must be restarted .

Awesome that HW CEC is working! Thanks a lot for everyone who put effort to make this happen.
I know development is at very early stage and these are probably already known, but here is couple things I noticed:

- Libcec seams to change the Kodi UI-language to TV-menu language even if the option "use tv menu language" is not set
- "inactive source" is maybe not handled properly, sometimes cec doesn't work after switching sources
- if automatic refresh rate change happens, libcec loses connection to TV. This propably needs to be handled by the cec driver
