Need to Blacklist Built in IR

I've just installed Libreelec on my ASRock ION which has a built in IR. The problem is it requires quite direct input compared to the MCE remote one I have so I need to blacklist it to prevent double inputs.

I ran:

cat /proc/bus/input/devices

and got the following:

I: Bus=0019 Vendor=1050 Product=00b4 Version=0073
N: Name="Nuvoton w836x7hg Infrared Remote Transceiver"
P: Phys=nuvoton/cir0
S: Sysfs=/devices/pnp0/00:02/rc/rc0/input6
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=kbd event3
B: PROP=0
B: EV=100013
B: KEY=fff 0 4200108fc32e 237605100000000 0 700158000 419200004001 8e968000000000 10000000
B: MSC=10

I: Bus=0003 Vendor=1784 Product=0001 Version=0000
N: Name="Media Center Ed. eHome Infrared Remote Transceiver (1784:0001)"
P: Phys=usb-0000:00:1d.1-2
S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb6/6-2/6-2:1.0/rc/rc1/input15
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=kbd event12
B: PROP=0
B: EV=100013
B: KEY=fff 0 4200108fc32e 237605100000000 0 700158000 419200004001 8e968000000000 10000000
B: MSC=10

So I need to blacklist the Nuvoton but I'm not sure how I do that and hoping someone can advise me how I can do it.

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Looks like I found the answer with a bit more Googling:

echo "blacklist nuvoton-cir" | sudo tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nuvoton-cir.conf

Just wondering... Any options in the machine's BIOS you can disable?

There is one called something like CIR Power on which was enabled and I disabled but it still seemed to be working. That was the only one I could find.

I ran:

Canary:~ # echo "blacklist nuvoton-cir" | tee /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-nuvoton-
cir.conf
blacklist nuvoton-cir
Canary:~ # rmmod nuvoton-cir

Haven't had a chance to test it yet due to it being in use. Will reboot once I get a chance.

Can confirm that has resolved it.
