| Post subject: | IR Blaster Help |
Good day all, I appear to be having some problems with lirc to transmit. A little background for you: ir blaster ordered from irblaster.info and lirc configured using: http://losdos.dyndns.org:8080/public/mythtv-info/MythTV_DISH_IR_LED_TX_via_Modified_LIRC.html I am running the shell script provided in the howto to change channels, and have attempted a number of different sleep timers. Ranging from .2 seconds to 1.5 seconds. The problem is, say I run change_chan.sh 222.. I might get a "2" on my reciever. Might not.. if I run change_chan.sh 22222222222 I just might get three 2's.. but not necessarily. While attempting to figure out if it was just misplaced on the front of the reciever, I had a while sleep 1 do change_chan.sh 222 done loop running, after 5 minutes, i was getting device or resource busy errors. I have gone into the bios, and manually set the irc to 0x2f8, irq 3 and have the exact same problem. any ideas? |

I've reconfigured my bios to have com1 enabled, and reconfigured my ir blaster for com1. Still the same problem.

toonces, see 'IMPORTANT NOTE #2' in stage 5 of my writeup. try renice'ing the ledxmit process as i show, and tell me if that improves things. ps: what speed CPU are you running? what set top box do you have? how far from your IR blaster to your set top box? http://losdos.dyndns.org:8080/public/my ... _LIRC.html regards, jim / jds-myth !at! losdos.dyndns.org |
