  • RC stop working after upgrade from 7.95.1 to 8

    Quote from vink78


    I've killed these two process before starting eventlircd, and, before plugged in the USB stick:

    Code
    Mar 28 19:42:54 LibreELEC lircd-0.9.4c[749]: Info: closing '/dev/input/event14'


    Ah, sorry, I've missed that before.

    Logs and config all look fine: the eventlircd udev rule is processed correctly by udevd (it calls wakeup_enable) but for some reason eventlircd doesn't want to pick up the input device.

    I ran an identical test on my RPi with a Hauppauge USB dongle and eventlircd picked up the input device just fine.

    Very odd, no idea what's going wrong here - maybe I missed something or maybe there's a bug hiding somewhere.

    So until we have a better fix just stick to the lircd devinput workaround, at least this seems to be working fine :)

    Ok. maybe libreelec detect the wrong device?

    Code
    LibreELEC:~ #  /usr/sbin/eventlircd -vvv -f --evmap=/etc/eventlircd.d --socket=/run/lirc/lircd
eventlircd[966]: /etc/eventlircd.d/default.evmap: using 0 valid keyboard shortcut mappings
eventlircd[966]: input device /dev/input/event2: grabbed

    This text was displayed before I plug my device. No more text was displayed after I plugged it.

    journalctl -> dZDA


    Saw in the log that you also had lircd running. Could you repeat the test with lircd/lircd-uinput disabled?

    The "/dev/input/event2: grabbed" output is normal, this is eventlircd handling your powerbutton. But in addition to that event14 should be listed there, too after you plugged in the receiver. Could be that lircd grabbed the input device before eventlircd, therefore the need to run the test without lircd in the background.

    I've posted the output of udevadm here: GIGX

    Thanks! The output looks OK and the remote should have been picked up by eventlircd (or kodi). Very strange, not sure what's going on there.

    Could you try the following:

    Unplug the Terratec receiver, then power up your libreelec box. When it's up ssh in and run these commands:

    Code
    systemctl stop kodi
systemctl stop eventlircd
udevadm control -l debug
/usr/sbin/eventlircd -vvv -f --evmap=/etc/eventlircd.d --socket=/run/lirc/lircd

    Then plug in your Terratec receiver. After a few seconds eventlircd should have detected the IR receiver and output some info. If it succeeded it should look like this:

    Code
    eventlircd[801]: /etc/eventlircd.d/default.evmap: using 0 valid keyboard shortcut mappings
eventlircd[801]: input device /dev/input/event3: events of unsupported event type EV_MSC will be discarded
eventlircd[801]: input device /dev/input/event3: event code 0x04 of unsupported event type EV_MSC will be discarded
eventlircd[801]: input device /dev/input/event3: events of unsupported event type EV_REP will be discarded
eventlircd[801]: input device /dev/input/event3: grabbed

    Then stop eventlircd with CTRL-C and post the output you got on the terminal and the journal

    Code
    journalctl -a | paste

    I've a Terratec USB Cinergy HTC Stick which stopped working when I upgraded my install from 7.95.1 to 8.0. I've already read other post related to Remote Control issue, but, I did not find a simple guide to solved my issue:

    ir-keytable seems to be OK:

    > Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event14) with:

    Could you please post the output of

    Code
    udevadm info -a -n /dev/input/event14


    First check the exact event number via ir-keytable, it might change, so you'll have to adjust the command above.

  • LE 8.0.1 fresh install - lircd not up by default

    Very puzzling. Could you run a few more commands and post the output?

    Code
    ls -la /storage/.config/
ls -la /storage/.cache/services/
ls -la /dev/lirc*
systemctl -a | paste
udevadm info -a -n /dev/lirc0 | paste

    It would also be interesting if starting lircd manually works. Open 2 ssh sessions, in the first one run this (it's a single line, forum display will break it but copy-paste should work):

    Code
    /usr/sbin/lircd --nodaemon --loglevel=debug --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --output=/run/lirc/lircd-lirc0 --pidfile=/run/lirc/lircd-lirc0.pid --release=_LIRCUP /storage/.config/lircd.conf

    If this worked (you should see "Notice: lircd(default) ready, using /run/lirc/lircd-lirc0") run the following command in the second ssh session:

    Code
    /usr/sbin/lircd-uinput --loglevel=debug --release=_LIRCUP /run/lirc/lircd-lirc0

    At this point you should have a working remote in kodi.

    Please also post the console output you got from these commands.

  • Wolfson/Cirrus Logic audio card is now supported in official LibreELEC builds

    Good news, everyone!

    I'm happy to announce that we integrated support for the Wolfson and Cirrus Logic cards into LibreELEC. Starting with today's 8.0.1 release these cards will work with official builds.

    LibreELEC (Krypton) v8.0.1 MR – LibreELEC

    If you've been using my 8.0.0 build just do a manual update to the official 8.0.1 version. This is going to be a seamless update, all your configuration settings will be preserved.

    HOW TO:Update LibreELEC - LibreELEC

    If you are new to this and do a fresh install with 8.0.1 don't forget to enable the card in config.txt via

    Code
    dtoverlay=rpi-cirrus-wm5102

  • LIRCD / Remote Problem since Updating to Version 8

    Quote from nicolaberndt


    I use a lirc-server in the network and starting lirc from autostart like this helps to get irw showing me all the keypresses:
    mkdir -p /var/run/lirc
    /usr/sbin/lircd -c infrared-pi -O /storage/.config/lirc/lircd_options.conf /storage/.config/lirc/lircd.conf

    ..just kodi is not picking it up, it used to work for me like that.

    You also need to run lircd-uinput (adding the --uinput option of lircd might still work, but this is deprecated). See for example the lircd start script of LE:

  • No Xbox Dongle Remote after update to LE 8.0.0

    Quote from toxicbrain


    I have the same problem. But the develop fix does not work for me. Here is my Log: iTiA Would you mind to take a look? Did I miss something? Version 7 works perfectly fine.


    You seem to have some garbage in .config/modprobe.d/xpad.conf - better remove that file completely or try doing a fresh install on a separate card to check if you have some old cruft sitting around.

    But I think the real problem is somewhere else, the xbox receiver disconnects and reconnects to USB - this usually points to USB or power supply problems. Also try without the mouse and use another power supply.

    in .config there actually really is a
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Feb 2 2016 lircd.conf
    but its empty.


    Then better remove it :)

    your command produced a strange output
    mediacenter:~/.config # ir-keytable -p rc-6 /sys/class/rc/rc0/
    ir-keytable: Too many arguments


    ah, sorry, that should have been

    Code
    ir-keytable -p rc-6 -s rc0


    Quote


    created a

    /storage/.config/autostart.sh with
    #!/bin/bash
    # added temporarily for libreelec 8.0.0
    ir-keytable -p rc-6

    works. will check again with new version of libreelec.

    Could you disable the autostart.sh and test if this 8.0.1 preview build works:
    LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-8.0.1.tar

    tested this, the problem seems to have been sorted, thanks!

    Shame we didn't make it in 8.0.0. When do you think 8.0.1 will be out?


    Thanks for reporting back!

    I can't give an exact time schedule for the 8.0.1 release but it shouldn't be too far from now (could be 2 weeks or so, maybe longer, maybe shorter). We'd like to include kodi 17.1 and in the meantime we're collecting bug reports and trying to fix them :)

    so long,
