And now it seems to work!

Should I change anything?

I want to thank your support and your fast responses!

Oops!

In the Tvheadend web page, I created two users:

"root" (pwd=libreelec)

and

"guest"

and I login with root, libreelec

Inside Tvheadend HTSP Client -> Connection Settings -> kodi ip=192.168.1.254 (127.0.0.1 failed) , user=root, pwd=libreelec

May be an error to use these settings?

Thank you again

OK, CvH, I believe here is what you say:

I looked for the PVR backend error when trying to delete the recording (after being cancelled) but I couln't find it!

Please forgive my awkwardness!

OK,

I compressed debug.txt, it was too big to upload

Thank you CvH !

The update was successful, but the error persists. I've posted details in Tvheadend nightly builds for LE - CvH - LibreELEC Forum

I believe it's the right place.

Thank you again!

Thank you CvH for your fast response!

I upgraded tvheadend with the

rpi2-tvheadend42-4.3-1233.zip

LibreELEC shows now 4.3 instead of 4.2, channels OK, but the problem persists: If I record a channel and stop recording, the system shows an error (PVR source error) and cannot delete the recorded file. Only rebooting I can solve the situation, but the system still believes it's recording and I must confirm the reboot.

May someone help me to solve this error?

Thank you in advance

Hi!

I installed Tvheadend 4.2, available as an add-on, but I get failures while trying to cancel recordings, and I must reboot. As I have read in Tvheadend forum, there is a new release (maybe 4.3 ?) but LibreELEC decides when to make it available as a new add-on version. So, maybe I'm the first with my hardware configuration to try an update.

May someone help me to compile and test the new Tvheadend version for LibreELEC on a Raspberry Pi 3?

Also I would appreciate any other solution

Thank you in advance

Thank you again, HiassofT:

So if I understood well, to use the only the gpio receiver having the dvb dongle inserted and avoid the need of aluminium tape, I remove all the lines I added to autostart.sh and

use this rc_maps.cfg:

# driver table file

gpio-rc-recv rc-rc6-mce avermedia_remote

And the line ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg will be not needed not even in first installation, right?

I thank you your interest, this is a little nightmare for me.

Thank you both for your fast response.

bublegum57: I've been playing with the ir-keytable -D 375 -P 100, and now I'm not sure if some change has been permanent or all changes are volatile. If not, Do you know if I can reset its configuration?

HiassofT:

My first trying was 3.3V of course. I agree the datasheet says 2.5 to 5.5V, but none of the tree TSOP4838 y bought some years ago works at

V < 4V. so I used 5V. Maybe I bought the TSOP4838 and the store gave me another model, you know...

I removed (in autostart.sh) the

ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg

but wouldn't the

ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg

line in autostart.sh be a security, or if rc_maps.cfg is present will be always loaded?

and of course the
lircd start

killall lircd

were removed some days ago.

Finally the behaviour is the same: double keypress... UNTIL i READ CAREFULLY AGAIN YOUR MESSAGE: "If you have another ir receiver (eg on a DVB USB dongle)" , I looked at the USB tuner and saw it always had two small thinnies, to use the COMMANDER I NEVER BOUGHT.

I checked it and it was also receiving the commander, unplugged it and the commander worked perfect. Well, the aluminium tape will solve it.

Now I've two new questions (maybe I should begin two new threads?)

I'm not happy using the Avermedia commander, because it's beeing also used with the computer and I'd prefer a commander specialy designed for kodi, like the one that comes with the A95x TV Box, but I'd like to buy only the commander. Do you know any commander (good and cheap) like this one?

Also I choose the hand-made IR receiver because I added a led to signal the infrared reception, and it works, but after so many days reading almost everything in internet, I found that the Raspberry pin #17 is sometimes used in lirc systems as output so I thought: Would it be possible to use this or another Raspberry pin to signal the infrared reception? I mean like the kodi sound every time a key is pressed. Maybe an addon is needed?

Thank you both again and I'm sorry for my mistake

Hi, everybody!

I'm new here, after reading for some weeks while trying to solve the (obvious?) remote double keypress.

Hardware description: Raspberry Pi 3B + TSOP4838 IR chip + Avermedia RM-HV remote (taken from an internal Speedy Avermedia TDT card) + new remote batteries

Every piece of hardware checked working itself.

Note: the TSOP4838 is powered at 5V. and also has the recommended RC power filter, and its output voltage level is translated to 3.3V and attached to the Raspberry pin #18.

Software description: LibreELEC 8.2.4 in a SD card, new installation, not from update.

CEC disabled

Lirc disabled

Symptom:

Double keypress

Something that may help:

In my first installation, trying everything, I could see that enabling and disabling Lirc under LibreELEC config seemed to solve the problem,

so I used this /storage/.config/autostart.sh:

ir-keytable -a /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg

lircd start

killall lircd

but this "solution" was not good, because then the remote was hard to use, I had to point directly to the TSOP4838 to be sure it would work, and sometimes it did not work. Well, at least I could continue the installation, but suddenly the remote failed almost every time, so I decided to reinstall again and try to solve the problem, but without success.

My question is:

Everything seems to be OK, but the double keypress is here. May someone help me to do a good configuration?

Now I doubt if it's possible to make it work ok, with my hardware and using the kernel. Should I use the old lirc?

Sorry for my long message and thank you in advance
