Hello,
Am trying to get my remote to work and have some problems. Had the same problem with Openelec with the latest version, an this is how I discovered LibreElec:)
Case: ORIGENAE S16T with IR module
Libreelec: LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-7.0.2
The hardware etc works. I tested this with a Ubuntu Live USB an got it all to work, and so I went on searching for the cause of the problem.
I enabled the parameter to start in remote.conf to start irtrans => remote did not work.
I did some reading and found that IRtrans was not running/or receiving my signals.
I finally got it to work when I create autostart.sh with folowing:
#!/bin/sh
irserver -logfile /var/log/irserver.log -daemon /dev/ttyUSB0
The remote worked fine, but then I experienced some other problems as slow/failing network etc.
It would be great that the parameter in remote.conf started IRserver.
Thx!
