Update from nightly 13 amlgx 20240612 to 20240613 broke ir.
Jun 14 18:11:08.650336 LibreELEC systemd[1]: lircd.service was skipped because of an unmet condition check (ConditionPathExists=/storage/.config/lircd.conf).
Jun 14 18:11:08.651632 LibreELEC systemd[1]: lircd-uinput.service was skipped because of an
unmet condition check (ConditionPathExists=/storage/.config/lircd.conf).Fix identified - https://github.com/LibreELEC/eventlircd/pull/4
The fix is merged for next nightlies. If you need something sooner https://chewitt.libreelec.tv/testing/LibreE…h64-12.80.0.tar has the fix included.
Thank you very much for your help.
When I got to my computer, version 20240615 had already been released. So first I upgraded to it, and got

The fix will be in official LE nightlies from tomorrow so that's expected. No need to check anything.
Ok and thank you one more time.
hi, I may still have the same issue on the 12.8 nightly:

Am I missing something ? The remote works in 9.2.8 coreelec without modification.
The device is a Tanix Tx9s ( S912 rev a)
thank you!
I found what was missing, it was /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg .
I added :
LibreELEChv:~/.config # cat rc_maps.cfg
meson-ir * tanix_tx5max.toml
After that it worked like on the old version.
I don't understand how things work from the docs, is there no way to load things automatically like on the old version ?
I am happy it works anyway, thank you
