I installed the new version, and when i say i have a irblaster, it asks me this:

Code:
What device are you controlling with the blaster:
1) Hughes_DDS_GAEBO     4) Motorola_DCT2000     7) I'll install my own
2) LG_Goldeneye_TV      5) Motorola_DCT2524
3) Motorola_CFT2200     6) Nokia_MM9802S
#?


what do i have to chose there?

That is asking you which LIRC configuration file you want in /etc/irblaster/irblasterd.conf. Just pick any one. Then after it starts irblasterd, stop it by running
Code:
/etc/init.d/irblaster stop
and then run
Code:
irrecord -d /dev/irblaster
so that you can create a configuration file for your remote (if you dont already have one). You may want to run
Code:
mode2 -d /dev/irblaster
just to check that the receiver is working before doing the irrecord though.

This is getting odd, i just keep getting:

Code:
root@mythtv:~# /usr/local/bin/irblaster.sh
Do you have a serial port IR Blaster?
y
Which comm port is the blaster attached to?
a) COM1
b) COM2

b
What device are you controlling with the blaster:
1) Hughes_DDS_GAEBO     4) Motorola_DCT2000     7) I'll install my own
2) LG_Goldeneye_TV      5) Motorola_DCT2524
3) Motorola_CFT2200     6) Nokia_MM9802S
#? 1


Selected Hughes_DDS_GAEBO.
 System startup links for /etc/init.d/irblaster already exist.
Stopping irblaster daemon: irblasterdNo process in pidfile `/var/run/irblasterd.pid' found running; none killed.
.
Starting irblaster daemon:.
root@mythtv:~# /etc/init.d/irblaster stop
Stopping irblaster daemon: irblasterd.
root@mythtv:~# mode2 -d /dev/irblaster
mode2: error opening /dev/irblaster
mode2: No such device
root@mythtv:~#


also tryed with COM1, but getting the samething there...

IS there a way to see if it finds the ir serial device?

oops. sorry. I gave you a bit of a bum steer. unfortunately, running "/etc/init.d/irblaster stop" actually removes the lirc_serial module, hence the error you are seeing.

Instead of using the script to stop it, just use the command "killall irblasterd".

That should leave the lirc_serial module installed with the /dev/irblaster device pointing to it. Then the mode2 and irrecord commands should work.

Look at the man page for irrecord. I am not by my box so i cant at the moment. If you still have problems let me know.

Code:
irrecord -d /dev/irblaster /record


that worked, then it makes a file called record, with all my buttons coded into it..

How where should i place that file?

also as i recall i have to edit some file, telling it what key does what, in what program, where is that file located?

That file should be copied to /etc/irblaster/irblasterd.conf.

You will probably also want to edit /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc to map your buttons to the actions you want.

it seems how ever i am missing something in mythtv, like the movement of the arrows, how should i map them? (right,left,up and down, and ok)

tryed to search for a complete lircr file but couldent find one, so i tryed to adjust the one who was already there.. hopefully it will work when i get home from work (setting it up throught ssh)

have you tried rebooting. the lirc stuff needs to start in the right order after changing the config files.
