What is HDMI-CEC?
CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) is the control protocol found in HDMI™. If you've not heard of CEC, you may have heard of it in another form, Sony call it Bravialink, LG call it Simplink and Samsung call it Anynet+
These are all the same system essentially and our adapter allows your HTPC to join that communication channel.

The USB - CEC Adapter allows Kodi to turn your TV and other attached equipment on and off (if they support HDMI CEC) adjust the volume or eject the disk from a drive. Start playback etc.
