   Thank you.    Joerg Walther posted a bit more extensive instructions to   
   install the utils, and as such that part went without a hitch.

   :-) It so happens I found the same page.   
      
   But alas, neither the "as" command nor the "tx" commands I tried caused the   
   TV to switch back to its own tuner.   
      
   Remark: the "scan" as well as the "standby 0" worked fine (meaning: the TV   
   does understand CEC)   
      
   Yesterday I didn't think of it, but today I'm going to switch my DVR on as   
   well (so the TV has two HDMI sources) and see if I can get the TV to switch   
   to the DVR and back- just to make sure the "swich to" command(s?) are   
   actually understood.
