missing some glue for aureal driver

hey there,

I was used to lirc since a long time using homebrew receivers with success.
Now i changed my remotes to some aureal and built lirc 0.9.0 
--with-driver=atwf83
which is specially meant for this devices.
Further changes are : disble the eventX from beeing used in Xorg,
tell udev to symlink the appropirate device to /dev/input/irremote,
copy the config from sources to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf (debian),
start lirc via SysV and with -H atwf83 -d /dev/input/irremote.
also i changed the remote's name in my ~/.lircrc.

Unfortunately i have no function and can't use the tools to
check my input because they are meant for some pulse/pause
combinations and not for hid-scancodes.

How may i check and correct this issue ?

serial receiver with usb power source

 Hi,  I want to build the serial receiver that's on http://www.lirc.org/receivers.html, but I wanted to know how it needs to be modified to use the 5v usb line to power it, as suggested there, so I don't need to use the RTS at all. 
 Any help will be appreciated as I don't want to burn anything.

iguanaworks serial transceiver and lirc weirdness

hello list,
i'm trying to get lirc working with iguanaworks serial ir transceiver
(http://iguanaworks.net/products/series-transceiver/), but failing
miserably. i have a soekris net4801
(http://soekris.com/products/net4801.html) box running debian wheezy
(7.0), and the transceiver is connected to the extra serial port with a
simple db9 to idc cable.
now, the weird thing is that mode2 and irrecord work very nicely, but
irw or irexec don't. here's what i get when trying to run irw (it's on
ttyS1 because ttyS0 is the serial console):

root <at> krzysztof:~# setserial /dev/ttyS1
/dev/ttyS1, UART: unknown, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
root <at> krzysztof:~# modprobe -v lirc_serial
insmod /lib/modules/3.2.0-4-486/kernel/drivers/media/rc/lirc_dev.ko 
insmod /lib/modules/3.2.0-4-486/kernel/drivers/staging/media/lirc/lirc_serial.ko
irq=3 io=0x2f8 sense=1 debug=1
root <at> krzysztof:~#lircd -n -d /dev/ttyS1
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: lircd(default) ready, using /var/run/lirc/lircd
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: accepted new client on /var/run/lirc/lircd
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: could not get hardware features
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: this device driver does not support the LIRC
ioctl interface
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: major number of /dev/ttyS1 is 4
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: make sure /dev/ttyS1 is a LIRC device and use a
current version of the driver
lircd-0.9.0-pre1[5404]: Failed to initialize hardware

again, i can clearly see things running around the screen when
pressing buttons on my remote with mode2, and irrecord also seemsto
pick up everything i send its way. so what gives?
any help is appreciated,
thanks,
ido

Different types of IR codes for the same remote

Hello,


Here comes an IR code in hexa recorded by an IR-PRO device (http://www.rticorp.com/products/IRPRO.html)


0000 006D 0000 0024 0156 00A9 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0014 0016 0014 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 0040 0016 05E8 0156 0054 0016 02F8


I've also used irrecord to get the ir code and it looks like completely different:


name  remote_RC57.conf

  bits           16

  flags SPACE_ENC|CONST_LENGTH

  eps            30

  aeps          100


  header       9035  4463

  one           564  1647

  zero          564   517

  ptrail        567

  repeat       9040  2193

  pre_data_bits   16

  pre_data       0x12ED

  gap          108253

  toggle_bit_mask 0x0


      begin codes

          KEY_OPEN                 0x30CF

      end codes


end remote




I don't understand how the ir code is stored with irrecord.


May someone explain it to me ?


best regards,

RE: Irrecord with Hama MCE Remote receiver

I want to recreate this file for other remotes that I don't know the config file.

What is the .lircrc file ? I haven't it in my local folder.

Irrecord with Hama MCE Remote receiver

Hello,

I would like to know if it's possible to use irrecord to make a Lirc config file with a Hama MCE Remote receiver. And if yes, is it possible to use this receiver with others remotes.

Regards,


Julien

Remote AND transmitter with lircd 0.9.0

I could use some help getting my MythTV over what I think is the last 
hurdle.

My hardware.conf is below.  As written, I have a remote that works 
perfectly, but attempting to transmit with irsend gives the error message

	irsend: hardware does not support sending

On the other hand, if I comment out all the REMOTE* lines in 
hardware.conf, the transmitter works perfectly.

Other clues:

With the hardware.conf file as shown below, "ls -l /dev/lirc*" produces:

crw------- 1 root root 250, 0 May  8 19:36 /dev/lirc0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     19 May  8 19:40 /dev/lircd -> /var/run/lirc/lircd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     20 May  8 19:40 /dev/lircd1 -> 
/var/run/lirc/lircd1

Turning off power on the HD-PVR makes /dev/lirc0 disappear, fwiw.

I'd be grateful for a hint.

lirc and ipv6

Greetings,

I would like to know if lirc operates over ipv6 networks and whether there are 
compile switches to compile lirc for ipv6 usage.

Thanks in advance

Information for Fedora 17


Hi,
Over the last couple of years I have attempted unsuccessfully to get my
Hauppage A415-HPG-WE-A remote (Nova T-500 card) to work.

Recently I have been running XBMC and REALLY want to get it to work but
cannot find and up to date information relevant to latest Fedora kernels.

Before I go into lots of detail on what I have done,  can someone point
me to any relevant information?
I just want to see all the buttons being detected and given a function,
I will configure lircrc later!

Thanks for your time

Wrong event

Had another look at the events as per  "cat /proc/bus/input/devices"  and discovered event15:

I: Bus=0000 Vendor=0000 Product=0000 Version=0000
N: Name="MCE IR Keyboard/Mouse (cx88xx)"
P: Phys=/input0
S: Sysfs=/devices/virtual/input/input15
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=kbd mouse2 event15
B: PROP=0
B: EV=100017
B: KEY=30000 7 ff87207ac14057ff febeffdfffefffff fffffffffffffffe
B: REL=3
B: MSC=10
Decided to reboot without the script for starting the lirc mouse, and lirc now worked!  Checked events:
ir -> event8 and event 17 does not show up.  Rebooted again, now with the script for starting the lirc mouse,
except put a # in front of the line "modprobe uinput", and lirc still workded.
 
Thus SuSE must have changed something beween 12.2 and 12.3.  Have used the modprobe line for a few years with SuSE, also still use it for Ubuntu, but have never needed it for Feodora.
