I hear ya. I hear ya. Actually, that's the same problem I have. lirc works perfectly,
but MythTV doesn't recognize any keypresses. The only thing I could do to get it to work
at all was use a different lircrc file, but that only seemed to work for about the first 15 minutes
after X had been run. Very strange. If you do find a solution to the above problem, I'd really
appreciate it. If all I need to do is uninstall and reinstall lirc, I'll gladly do it, as this is getting
very frustrating indeed.

I may be onto something related to this problem. Would you mind telling me what happens if you try
to start mythfrontend from a console in X. If you then exit Myth, and look back at your console,
does it display any errors? I want to see if the same thing is happening on your machine as on mine.

I am having very similar but slightly different problem, except I'm using lirc 0.7.0. Notice what robert wrote in his HOWTO:

"lirc-0.7.1 has support for this remote, but I was unable to get it to work"

So perhaps you'll want to try 0.7.0, if all else fails.

Either way, please let us know what works for you.

shplad


shplad,

Thanks, but I've been down that road. My issue when I was running 0.7.0 with the patch was that lirc was able to recognize the remote but MythTV wasn't. I may uninstall and reinstall lirc just to see what happens, but I really want to be able to get repeatable results from a base install. This will help me out making a nice full install disk in case I have a bad hardware issue.

That, and a friend of mine wants to get a MythTV box going, but since I'm going through hell right now on this remote thing he is going to wait. When I am successful he will get the same exact hardware that I'm running and I can just run my disk on his machine and it should start working right away.

That's the plan anyway.

I won't get a chance to get that info to you until probably tomorrow. I've got some recordings tonight (Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Battlestar Galactica) and don't want to mess with the system until that is all finished.

Oh, and if I find a solution for you it would probably also work for me as I can get back to having the problem in a jiffy.

<Off-topic>, but it's sooo painful to hear you Yanks can watch the new episodes of BFG
and we're still waiting to get them on our crappy sci-fi type network up here in Canada.
The season finale was so darned good. Best sci-fi show in 10 or 15 years.
Do you guys get the new Doctor Who down there?


I'll be curious to see what your results are. Please post when you get time.

I also feel it sucks you don't get Battlestar Galactica. I haven't seen ANY Doctor Who down here. :( Perhaps our two coutries could sign a treaty allowing free trade of sci-fi. Ok, I'll wake up out of my dream now.

Here is what I have. Mind you this after I have done a recording so there is stuff broken. I did a line like:
Code:
mythfrontend 1> 1.txt 2> 2.txt

to capture the error messages. This is what I got:

Hmm....me wonders whether it would be possible to establish a "Free
Trade" zone
between us, if ya know what I mean. ;-)

As for the lirc issue, my results have to be the most bizarre ever. Last night, I was on
another forum, and someone told me I was using the wrong file for my lircrc. I replaced it
with the one he suggested. Bam-lirc works in Myth. Then, I go out for a couple of hours,
come home and Bam-lirc doesn't work at all, even outside of Myth. I'm starting to wonder
about this card. I reseated the card in its pci slot, but still having intermittent functionality.
I think I'm gonna have a go at removing all traces of lirc and then reinstalling it again.
If that doesn't work, I'm going to put the card in a Windows machine to diagnose whether
it's defective or not. That crappy 1/16" mini plug they use on the back for the ir cord doesn't
inspire much confidence either. I have my doubts about the stability of that thing.

Oh, previously, before I used that new lircrc file, I got error messages in the console
about unrecognized tokens in the lircrc file, with the final one being that the file was invalid.

Do a cold boot. See if your functionality comes back. If so, welcome to my world! :cry:

Also, if that happens reread this thread and see what you come up with when doing what I did.

Okay, well I uninstalled all traces of lirc. Interestingly enough, I found a
deb package of liblircclient0 .7.1pre2-2 in Synpatic, so I uninstalled that.
Myth would not run after that, complaining that it needed lirc_client0 or
similar to run.

I reinstalled lirc 0.7.0 from source. Myth still wouldn't run, though irw
worked okay. I then reinstalled the above deb package, and the remote
works fine in Myth. For a while. Then it suddenly quits without warning and won't work unless...you guessed it...

Unless I do A COLD BOOT.

navilor: Did you ever find a solution to this problem? Since we've
replicated it, it can't be too rare.

Anxiously awaiting your reply.

Sorry, I've got nothing. I'm giving up on this remote and am going to purchase a wireless keyboard. :(

My remote will work for a long time, and then at some point when it is recording it will die. That is my symptom.

Perhaps this will be addressed in an update in the future.

Hmmm...when you're recording, eh? Mine dies as long as Myth is running. Just out
of curiosity, would you mind checking which firmware you're using? Do you by any chance
have a line in dmesg that indicates that 10k or so of the firmware didn't download properly
or something similar?

PCI: Using ACPI for IRQ routing
** PCI interrupts are no longer routed automatically. If this
** causes a device to stop working, it is probably because the
** driver failed to call pci_enable_device(). As a temporary
** workaround, the "pci=routeirq" argument restores the old
** behavior. If this argument makes the device work again,
** please email the output of "lspci" to bjorn.helgaas@hp.com
** so I can fix the driver.

If you were to feed the term "HcwMakoA.ROM" into a Google search... You would find information like this:

From the results Google provided a search of the forums here would have been just as effective.

Ummm....er...uh....I appreciate the post, but...what's the answer? Not that I'm asking to
be spoonfed, but I believe it's not likely that a Linux newbie would've come up with
those links based on the symptoms observed. I'm still not sure I see the connection.
None of the other posts mention symptoms similar to mine and navilor's, that I can see.

Should I infer that because there was trouble downloading the firmware, that the firmware
is buggy, and therefore, I should use a different version of the firmware? I always figured
the error itself was misleading. After all, if the firmware wasn't downloaded,
how would the card work at all? Again, I think you're really overestimating the skill level
of a newbie (at least me, don't know about navilor) to troubleshoot and find solutions.

They don't display the symptom because they've got the firmware installed. Follow the directions given in those posts to install the firmware in the right place.

Hmmm...I still don't understand your answer. So you're saying in navilor's
case, the firmware isn't loading at all? The card can work with no firmware
installed, just not properly?

I have this in my dmesg log. I just ignored it because the card worked.
Would it indicate the same thing in my case?


Code:
i2c_adapter i2c-0: sendbytes: error - bailout.
cx25840: Failed to upload FW chunk, size 1022, uploaded 5110 bytes.
cx25840: Failed to load any FW image file
cx25840: Status: cx258413 (DEVICE_ID)

There are multiple chunks of firmware, and multiple versions, and the PVR-150 apparently arranges them differently than the 250/350. For the 250/350 there is an encoder piece and a decoder (only useful for the 350). If you had a 350 but only had the encoder firmware available you might get partial functionality.

My off the cuff guess is that with the 150, and probably due to the more capable IR dongle (detect and blast both), they broke that out as a seperate chunk. Or it could be something completely different... When debugging it's easy to get fooled by partial functionality so it's good to fix all the problems that you can even if they don't seem obviously related.
