LIRC problems

  • Hi everyone!

    Having quite big issues getting my remote working. Do getting the expected output with #irw, but then nothing. Do not have any clue on where to continue troubleshooting. Have reduced the commands to minimum for ts...

    IR input: TBS6982
    Remote: Harmony 650 running as an Hauppage

    /.config/lircd.conf


    /Userdata/Lircmap.xml


    /Userdata/keymaps/keymap.xml



    Any ideas?

    Best regards/
    Chris

    so IRW shows the correct output but nothing happens in Kodi?

    I'm not sure you really even need the lircmap.xml and keymap.xml

  • Nope, it doesnt react at all...

    Code
    LibreELEC:~ # irw
    00000000a0a0e817 00 KEY_LEFT Hauppauge
    00000000a0a034cb 00 KEY_UP Hauppauge
    00000000a0a0c837 00 KEY_RIGHT Hauppauge
    00000000a0a0b44b 00 KEY_DOWN Hauppauge
    00000000a0a0c23d 00 KEY_OK Hauppauge
    00000000a0a048b7 00 KEY_CHANNELUP Hauppauge
    00000000a0a008f7 00 KEY_CHANNELDOWN Hauppauge

  • I originally also could not get Lirc working on the Libreelec 7.0.0 release. It turned out the lirc files were missing in the image. What I did was I installed openelec en then did an upgrade to libreelec. Then it was working.

    Since then I haven't done a clean install again, but lirc support might still be missing from libreelec, so you might want to try my road. Not pretty, but it worked for me.

  • But are there any problem with the LIRC part since the IR code is taken in and interpreted? (IRW printout is working) I do not have any clue on how Kodi handles it from there..
