| Question=TV is not detected unless powered on first | |||
| Answer= | |||
* Some TVs/receivers only report their capabilities (EDID) through HDMI when powered on before the Pi. | |||
* If TV doesn't get the right resolution or CEC doesn't work when Pi is powered before the TV/receiver then you can: | |||
* Run: <code>sudo tvservice -d edid.dat</code> (after booting with TV/receiver powered on first) | |||
* copy the edid.dat to the FAT partition (/boot on raspbmc and /flash on openelec) | |||
* and add to config.txt: <code>hdmi_edid_file=1</code> and <code>hdmi_force_hotplug=1</code> | |||
