How about the IVTV block in the dmesg log?

Have you looked at the instructions for using the PVR-150 remote and IR blaster someone posted in the forums? There was some good information on this stuff there even if you don't care about the blaster part...

i'll give it it a try.

I'm using R5A22 and a winTV 150 non MCE with IR receiver and transmitter.

And it did work out of the box. During installation, I had to specified my remote.

I chose Hauppage WinTV150 receiver and transmitter. Not Hauppauge Silver.

I think it's option 4.

I want to reassign some keys.

Well I.... Installed the card on my XP machine and verified that the remote is working with no problems so it's not the hardware, or batteries or connection to the card.

I then grabbed the PVR-150 and threw it in an old HP Vectra I had laying around, which had NOTHING incommon with the Myth box I built. Installed using the i586 modules, then started over with the i686 modules. Neither install yielded a working remote.

I am up in arms at this point. The box does EVERYTHING I need it to do, is stable as a rock but I can't throw it in the living room using just a keyboard and a 30 foot extension cable.

Sorry Thomas, things got a little confusing here, since it seems like everytime I asked _you_ a question renfield33 was answering it. Hang on for a second while we try to take care of that.

Renfield33, please stop confusing things here in this thread! You've got different hardware and different issues. For the remainder of this thread, or at least until we get Thomas's issue resolved, please don't interupt unless we ask for you by name or you have a suggestion for Thomas. I'm more than happy to help you too, but I can't do both in the same thread at the same time. If you can't wait, please start another thread and summarize what we''ve already determined.

OK, onwards...

1) We've verified the hardware. This is a very good starting point.

2) From the logs you posted i think this is the key error:
Quote:
/var/log/kern.log:Nov 8 00:47:18 mythtv kernel: lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61
/var/log/kern.log:Nov 8 00:47:18 mythtv kernel: lirc_pvr150: ivtv i2c driver #0: no devices found


3) According to the dmesg section you posted you're loading the encoder firmware successfully, but if memory serves the PVR-150 has a seperate chunk of firmware for the enhanced IR remote receiver and blaster. Hang on while I search for details on that...

Starting here - http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Firmware

On this page - http://ivtvdriver.org/index.php/Firmware_versions note that a different version of the firmware is recommended for use with the PVR-150 and the newer versions of the IVTV driver. Make sure you've got that and we can continue from there...

Well off the Installation CD I copied:
HcwMakoA.ROM to /lib/modules/
and
HcwFalcn.rom to /lib/modules/ivtv-fw-enc.bin

I assume you just copy them in there and reboot and it will start using those? I rebooted and it still did not work. I wonder if IVTV or the Kernel or something has to take note of the different firmware I have just installed?

I have a similar problem. My PVR-150 remote works fine and then stops working out of nowhere. Then, out of nowhere, it starts working again. When it isn't working, in IRW I get:

lirc_pvr150: i2c_master_send failed with -14
lirc_pvr150: polling the ir receiver chip failed, trying reset

Hey guys,

Thought i would post as i did the orig. walkthrough that r22 and r26 is based on. I built a machine for a buddy of mine, using r22 and had the same problems. Seems (for some reason!?!?!) that doing a modprobe lirc_i2c brings the remote back to life. try it out after a clean reboot.


- Scott

Thought i would post a quick update on the situation, I have upgraded my myth setup in the house to r26 now, and am facing the same problem as you guys... i am now going to try to figure this out over the next few days (holiday time from work), if you guys have found anything out, please post it here.


Thanks
