Turn off TV using cec-client on RPI

I have RPi B+ running Raspbian connected to my LG TV via HDMI. I succefully compiled and installed cec-client and I can easly turn on TV using command echo "on 0" | cec-client -s, however when I try to turn tv off using command echo "standby 0" | cec-client -s I get this output:

And nothing happens. Also I am using CLI only, and after some time RPi put TV into blank screensaver, but I cant figure out how to do this immidiately on my command.

LG TVs (and only TVs) do not support CEC Standby command.See here. Do not know if it is libcec implementation's or it is TV's limitation

here some additional commands, maybe thats usefull...

Standby:

echo "standby 0" | cec-client -s -d 1

Power On:

echo "on 0" | cec-client -s -d 1

Change HDMI Source:

HDMI 1: echo "tx 4F:82:10:00" | cec-client -s -d 1
HDMI 2: echo "tx 4F:82:20:00" | cec-client -s -d 1
HDMI 3: echo "tx 4F:82:30:00" | cec-client -s -d 1
HDMI 4: echo "tx 4F:82:40:00" | cec-client -s -d 1

Use this:

sudo apt-get update;
sudo apt-get install gcc;
sudo apt-get install autoconf;
sudo apt-get install libtool;
sudo apt-get install pkg-config;
sudo apt-get install libselinux1-dev;
sudo apt-get install liblockdev1-dev;
sudo apt-get install gawk;
sudo apt-get install g++;
sudo apt-get install c++;
sudo apt-get install libgudev-1.0-dev;
sudo apt-get install libudev-dev;

mkdir -p $HOME/distr/libcec; 
wget -P $HOME/distr/libcec https://github.com/Pulse-Eight/libcec/archive/master.zip;
unzip $HOME/distr/libcec/master.zip -d $HOME/distr/libcec/;
cd $HOME/distr/libcec/libcec-master ./bootstrap;"
./configure --with-rpi-include-path=/opt/vc/include --with-rpi-lib-path=/opt/vc/lib --enable-rpi;
make;
sudo make install;
sudo apt-get install cec-utils;

Then this:

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
sudo rpi-update
sudo reboot

It seems there is nothing wrong with libCEC. However, the HDMI-CEC implementation of LG TV model might just be ignoring the standby command. You should test your Raspberry Pi with some other HDMI-CEC compliant device to check if the standby command is working properly.
