Post subject: | LIRC irw and ircat receive the button presses but not mythtv |
I have recently bought a Lenovo labeled Philips-style MCE remote to use with mythtv, but I can't get mythfrontend to respond to it. If I run irw or "ircat mythtv" I can see that the commands are being received somewhere but why isn't mythtv listening? I previously used a serial ir receiver and lirc it still trying to listen to it. Code: [root@mythtv mythtv]# ps -ef|grep lirc root 1041 1040 0 Nov27 ? 00:00:00 runsv lircd root 1079 1041 0 Nov27 ? 00:00:01 /usr/sbin/lircd -r -n -d /dev/lirc0 --output /var/run/lirc/lircd --connect=localhost 8761 root 1909 1 0 Nov27 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/lircd -r -d /dev/lirc1 --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd1 --pidfile=/var/run/lircd1.pid --listen=8761 root 25684 32149 0 14:39 pts/1 00:00:00 grep lirc Does this matter? If so how can I stop lirc from listening to the serial port? I've tried to include some relevant debugging info. Is there anything else I should look at? Code: lsusb Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0471:060c Philips (or NXP) Consumer Infrared Transceiver (HP) Code: [root@mythtv mythtv]# cat ~mythtv/.lircrc irw output:include "/usr/MythVantage/templates/remotes/mceusb/lircrc-mceusb" Code: 000000037ff07bdf 00 Left mceusb ircat output:000000037ff07bdf 01 Left mceusb 000000037ff07bdf 02 Left mceusb 000000037ff07bdf 00 Left_UP mceusb 000000037ff07bde 00 Right mceusb 000000037ff07bde 01 Right mceusb 000000037ff07bde 00 Right_UP mceusb 000000037ff07be1 00 Up mceusb 000000037ff07be1 01 Up mceusb 000000037ff07be1 00 Up_UP mceusb 000000037ff07be0 00 Down mceusb 000000037ff07be0 01 Down mceusb 000000037ff07be0 00 Down_UP mceusb 000000037ff07bdd 00 OK mceusb 000000037ff07bdd 01 OK mceusb 000000037ff07bdd 02 OK mceusb Code: Left Right Up Down Return A snippet from /var/log/mythtv/mythfrontend.log Code: 2011-11-28 16:54:42.649 Enabled verbose msgs: important general

I've just read the MythTV wiki page for LIRC and it looks like I had to change the socket that Mythfrontend was listening to. I have changed it from /dev/lircd to /var/run/lirc/lircd and the mythfrontend.log no longer has the LIRC error. Hopefully when I get home tonight it will actually work. |
