I am not sure to what the "XBMC LCDproc" addon refers.
Is it the addon attached to the last post of the above mentioned thread?
Thanks for your quick answer.
"XBMC LCDproc" is the only LCD addon that I can find in the repository,
there is none that is called "LCDproc", or am I blind ?
I can try to install the one you had attached
[hr]
installation failed, I guess it's not intended for my version of libreelec
consider that I still use the "normal" version 7.0.2 - no alpha or beta
Hi all,
I have the following problem:
I've connected an hd44780 compatible 4x20 LCD to my raspberry pi 3 running libreelec 7.0.2
It has power and I see the the two default rows of 20 "boxes"
I've edited a LCDd.conf:
and copied it to /storage/.config/
In LibreElec stettings I've activated the driver and set it as well to hd44780
I've also installed the XBMC LCDproc addon
I've rebooted the device, but nothing happened, no characters on the display 
If I ssh to the raspi and try to start LCDd manually it says:
irtrans: unable to init client socket
Driver [irtrans] init failed, return code -1
Could not load driver irtrans
There is no output driver
Critical error while initializing, abort
Obviously it uses the default LCDd.conf that is stored in /etc/
I've checked that, and in that one irtrans driver is set, what fits to the error message and makes sense.
I've tried to replace that LCDd.conf with mine, but that fails, because this folder is read only.
So how can I replace it ?
Or how can I make LCDd to use my LCDd.conf in /storage/.config insted of the one in /etc/ ??
Many thanks in advance,
Orangutanklaus
