HDMI CEC on HA Supervised

Installation

1

Hello Community,

I browsed the forum but without any significant luck.

I have installed Home Assistant Supervised using this method:

Then I have installed libcec using this way:

However, I cannot Run CEC-Scan addon as it gives me the following errors:

[s6-init] making user provided files available at /var/run/s6/etc...exited 0.
[s6-init] ensuring user provided files have correct perms...exited 0.

[cont-finish.d] executing container finish scripts...
[cont-finish.d] done.
[s6-finish] waiting for services.
[s6-finish] sending all processes the TERM signal.

The Core log is full of this:

2021-11-14 04:06:08 WARNING (SyncWorker_0) [pycec] Not initialized. Waiting for init.

At some earlier stages I saw that the HA is referring to the python3.9 folder but I didn’t have it and I installed python3.9 manually using these instructions, though I didn’t set it to default:

I have used manifest.txt to remove the Libcec and recompiled it again to get it into python3.9 (i don’t know what i am speaking about, just thought it may be the right way)

Then I have installed the PyCEC using pip3 install pycec.

Also, I get this error in the Log:

cont-finish.d] executing container finish scripts...
[cont-finish.d] done.
[s6-finish] waiting for services.

Then I have read something that CEC is not supported by HomeAssistant on Raspberry anymore and I have installed this addon:

It started somehow to work, I see the switches in the automated LoveLace but I get more than I have:

My configuration is:

hdmi_cec:
  host: 58c14403-pi-cec
  devices:
    JackFruitTV: 0.0.0.0
    plexPi: 1.0.0.0
    hassPi: 2.0.0.0
    JackFruitSound: 3.0.0.0

echo scan | cec-client -s -d 1 in Raspberry SSH returns:

Segmentation fault

I got these entities in the switch, but none of them apparently work

All these devices are connected to the TV as it has the most HDMI ports.

So my question is:

How can I get HDMI without separate addons working in my environment?
How to get this pycec to work?
What I am doing wrong and please guide me:)

Thank you very much
