Did you look into also wiring this up for dp mst chains?
Isn't this sufficient? I have no way of testing mst chains.
I think I need some pointers from you, since I am a complete newbie when it
comes to mst.
I don't really have more clue, but yeah if you don't have an mst thing (a
simple dp port multiplexer is what I use for testing here, then plug in a
converter dongle or cable into that) then probably better to not wire up
the code for it.
I think my NUC already uses mst internally. But I was planning on buying a
dp multiplexer to make sure there is nothing special I need to do for mst.
The CEC Tunneling is all in the branch device, so if I understand things
correctly it is not affected by mst.
BTW, I did a bit more testing on my NUC7i5BNK: for the HDMI output they
use a MegaChip MCDP2800 DP-to-HDMI converter which according to their
datasheet is supposed to implement CEC Tunneling, but if they do it is not
exposed as a capability. I'm not sure if it is a MegaChip firmware issue
or something else. The BIOS is able to do some CEC, but whether they hook
into the MegaChip or have the CEC pin connected to a GPIO or something and
have their own controller is something I do not know.
If anyone can clarify what Intel did on the NUC, then that would be very
helpful.
It would be so nice to get MegaChip CEC Tunneling working on the NUC, because
then you have native CEC support without requiring any Pulse Eight adapter.
And add a CEC-capable USB-C to HDMI adapter and you have it on the USB-C
output as well.

Hans
