I tried disabling CEC from within kodi settings, but still get these entries.. is there another way to disable CEC?

[gdachs]

I don't know another way to disable cec. If disabling in kodi settings doesn't work, then this would be a libcec issue.

[mcaptur]

Actually needed to reboot openelec for setting to take effect.

Has nothing to do with my changes, but good to hear that it works now for you.
