Guys, thanks so much for your time. It's genuinely appreciated. When you say that it has to be the keybindings, are you referring to /etc/rc_keymaps/streamzap or the database keybindings table? I did see this peculiar message in mythfrontend log: 2012-03-19 12:34:03.261 Key > is bound to multiple actions in context Music. Here's output from my keybindings table for context Music. Code: [code][code]mysql> select * from keybindings where context='Music' order by hostname,keylist;

There is the duplicate indicated in the error. It doesn't know which action you want ">" to perform. But this in itself doesn't yet explain the rest of your issues.

ircat produced the expected results.
# ircat mythtv | tee /var/tmp/ircat-out
# cat /var/tmp/ircat-out
Return
Down
Left
Right
Up
p
m
Esc
Note also that all these keys work properly when I use my keyboard, of course.
I may build a test box on spare hw using the streamzap usb receiver and remote just to prove that it works. At least then I can have something to compare against.
Again, any comments/thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

Interesting. So what we know is everything is working all the way through lirc but mythtv itself is not getting the keys. Either there is a missing setting in mythtv that needs fixing or something is broken between lirc and mythtv. Go ahead with your test which I expect will work on a clean install. I'll give this some thought when I get home from work.

Service Menu -> Mythtv Configuration -> Setup -> General -> Page 9(last page) Change 'lirc daemon socket' to read '/var/run/lirc/lircd' restart frontend.

Depending where Abi started the upgrade from, this is a good bet. I've added this to the wiki entry. But I'm still wondering why the arrow keys worked anyway.

Goofee! You nailed it. Thanks a ton. I would've never found that myself.
That fixed the issue. The remote is now working! It's seeing button down (press) and button up (release) as two presses, but I've seen posts previously on how to fix that.
Christ >> What do you mean by "Depending where Abi started the upgrade from, this is a good bet."?? I did the standard upgrade from xterm. Why would this have created an issue such as mine?
I'm also very curious how the arrow keys and volume keys worked but other remote keys did not. I re-ran ircat and noticed two unintelligible characters before the Left, Right, Up, Down words that did not translate to text. Perhaps this offers a clue. No unintelligible characters were seen with the volume keys tho.
Note that the 'lirc daemon socket' was set to /dev/lircd yet there is no such file on my system.
Thanks again. I hope this helps someone else in my situation.

Why would this have created an issue such as mine? My recollection is lircd moved when we switched to the runit architecture. I can't remember exactly when that was but I think it was in 6.x somewhere. I remember everyone running around sym linking lircd at that time as a work around until the service panel was known. If you were running fine on 6.04 then there is a good chance you may have done a sym link of lircd at the time and then it got wiped during the upgrade to 7.2. I've added this to the wiki entry for the lirc architecture. At this point I think that wiki entry is a pretty good step by step diagnostic entry too.

I looked a little more into this and the db change is required when you move to lirc 0.8.6 and beyond. Oddly the LinHES upgrade code is supposed to handle this and change the mythtv variable (see http://linhes.org/issues/745). But on at least a few systems this did not happen. I opened a new bug ( http://linhes.org/issues/822) to capture this however if others have concrete data including upgrade log files, then please comment in the bug report and add the relevant log files.

Turns out if you upgrade online via the upgrade scripts then this conversion will happen properly but if you upgrade from CD then the change happens but the db restore occurs after and undoes the change to the db.

I upgraded online, not via cd, yet this happened. Sorry to burst your bubble.

abigailsweetashoney,
This was an an FE only machine right? When you did the update via xterm was your backend up and running?
If you have time to test this could you change your lirc socket back to /dev/lirc and then do a pacman -Sy lirc and see if the socket gets updated?

Mine was a BE/FE machine that was upgraded online and had this problem.

I have been unable to reproduce it not getting updated using the upgrade script. Could either of you that have seen this issue change your lirc socket back to /dev/lirc and then do a pacman -Sy lirc and see if the socket gets updated?
