| Post subject: | IR Blaster Recommendation for R5.A15.1 |
Hi All, I've searched the forums and the mailing list but I haven't come across the info I"m looking for yet. I personally have a homebew serial lirc transmitter a friend cooked up for me. However, I'm building a new box from scratch for a non-technical friend and I'd like to buy an off the shelf serial IR transmitter (IR Blaster) that works out of the gate with KnoppMyth. Can anyone recommend a store bought transmitter that is known to work with KnoppMyth? Thanks. -Jeff |

I'm seeing mixed feedback on R5A15 with the very nice looking transmitter from: http://www.irblaster.info Any comments? -Jeff |

Was it straight forward to get working under 5A15.1? |

The transmitter is the same as most simple homebrews. Just a nicer package. Setup under R5A15.1 is straight forward. You'll need to compile a kernal module for lirc_serial with transmit capability. But that's not hard. I've posted detailed instructions for getting a serial transmitter working along with a non-serial receiver here: http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4462 The instructions are general for Debian-based MythTV systems, so some of the steps will have been done already by KnoppMyth. |
