LE9.0 remote configs ir-keytable Amlogic devices

isidoros · February 17, 2018 at 6:16 PM

Hi guys,

I have an S905x minim8S which was updated to Adamg's 8.90.4 LibreELEC 9.0 Alpha and lost remote control functionality. I spend most of my Saturday reading the forums and i tried many configuration files from here but nothing works. I've tried the following remote.conf that i've found for my device but didn't work. When i scan my remote, the hex codes i receive are 0x8052, 0x8025, 0x8027 etc. I replaced on wordpad "0x" with "0x80" but again it didn't work. Can anyone help? Thanks a lot.

Code

#amlogic NEC remote
factory_code = 0x7f800001 
work_mode = 0
repeat_enable = 1
repeat_delay = 130
repeat_period = 120
release_delay = 20
debug_enable = 1

fn_key_scancode    = 0x52
left_key_scancode  = 0x25
right_key_scancode = 0x27
up_key_scancode    = 0x25
down_key_scancode  = 0x28
ok_key_scancode    = 0x0d
pageup_key_scancode = 0x04
pagedown_key_scancode = 0x1b

Hi all,

updated to Adamg's 8.90.4 on a Mecool K1 pro and, as expected, remote does not work. Anybody can point me to the right remote file in /usr/lib/udev/rc_keymaps as I understand that a number of them can work "out of the box" with the properly modified rc_maps.cfg? Tried the mecool but running ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg -s rc0 reports no device found. And only the on switch works. Navigation is unresponsive. Any help would be much appreciated as I am rather busy at the moment and have no time for tinkering... TIA

You need to update your DTB, nothing else is necessary for mecool

Get the device tree from the image. I had that problem on the Mini TX3 then used the device tree from the image which fixed remote.

I did a fresh install so maybe not the same issue.

Thanks for taking the time. I am pretty sure I updated the DTB from Adamg's repo for the upgrade... Anyway I'll take your advice and try that.

OK I ended up re-upgrading with the new DTB and all previous customizations deleted. Works perfectly now. I am a very happy camper.

I don't seem to be getting the installation process to work for me. As I'm only capable of copying the commands into terminal, I don't understand what happens next when I've run ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg -s rc0.

The terminal then says : "table from /etc/rc_keymaps or /usr/lib/udev/rc_keymaps". Is this a question or is it just a message to tell me what it has done?

I can confirm that the 2 files are in place (Lordjontan post #50 above) in their correct positions and that the rc_maps.cfg file has been appropriately edited. I copied them to their locations using kodi file manager.

i'd be grateful for any advice.

boot2k3 · February 20, 2018 at 10:04 AM

sonofdibnah, if all is ok you will see:

Code

# ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg -s rc0
Old keytable cleared
Wrote 28 keycode(s) to driver
Protocols changed to nec

check also if you use latest dtb file for you device.

I'm trying to create a map for my M9CMax remote (it already works but there are keys that do not work such as 0-9 and backspace), I followed the procedure and created the map file:

Code

# table m9cmax, type: NEC
0x404043 KEY_MUTE
0x404017 KEY_VOLUMEDOWN
0x404018 KEY_VOLUMEUP
0x40400b KEY_UP
0x404010 KEY_LEFT
0x404011 KEY_RIGHT
0x40400e KEY_DOWN
0x40400d KEY_ENTER
0x40401a KEY_HOMEPAGE
0x404045 KEY_MENU
0x404042 KEY_BACK
0x404001 KEY_1
0x404002 KEY_2
0x404003 KEY_3
0x404004 KEY_4
0x404005 KEY_5
0x404006 KEY_6
0x404007 KEY_7
0x404008 KEY_8
0x404009 KEY_9
0x404000 KEY_0
0x404047 KEY_PLAYPAUSE
0x40400c KEY_BACKSPACE
0x40404d KEY_POWER

But when I type "ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg -s rc0" it shows me this error message:

Code

Kodi:~ # ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg -s rc0
 invalid NEC
Invalid parameter on line 1 of /etc/rc_keymaps/m9cmax
Can't load m9cmax table from /etc/rc_keymaps or /usr/lib/udev/rc_keymaps

I'm sure it uses the NEC protocol (since I tested it with the NEC param in the command, like suggested in the post #5) so where could be the problem?

Thx

redsquirrel87 I had the same problem when I tried to create the file with Wordpad or Windows Notepad. So I had to make the file on github

Thank you very much, I used Medit to create it but the issue was indeed the same. By downloading (and editing) one of the existing ones on Github it works now

Now I just have to edit a couple of things (0-9 buttons give a weird result xD) and I'll share it when it will work flawlessy.
