One question - would it be hard to implement CEC support (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer_Electronics_Control) for the DIGITAL-VIDEO output, with some CLI tool to send the codes?

I can see two possible uses for this feature for the Amiga connected to the AV receiver:

1. Controlling the volume; some Amiga hotkey software (like MMKeyboard) could be used to trigger the AV receiver control

2. Video source switching; Amiga with Vampire and a scandoubler (like the Indivision ECS/AGA) would have two video outputs; SAGA driver could be extended to switch the AV receiver configuration when Amiga switches between AGA/RTG
