Hello,

Unfortunately I have no access to the system to be able to get the log

Can you install putty on your windows system?

Then you can connect to the LibreELEC system with putty running on your windows system and copy the log.

Best regards

Hmmm... unfortunately I don't have a clue what's wrong there :/. Perhaps the IR Receiver of your odroid is defective? May be try again another remote or another LibreELEC build (wrxtasy ODROID Forum • View topic - LibreELEC 7.1.3 - Kodi Jarvis - February update) and if that doesn't help either, then best would be to open a thread at forum.odroid.com with your issue... perhaps somebody can you give some advice there -_-.

Hello Infinity85,

thank you for your answer.
How can I verify if the IR Receiver of the Odroid C2 is defective?

Best regards

I'm not sure why you don't simply follow the guide for making your own lircd.conf...

I've tried it with my harmony... Your given profile does not work for me either. But following the above linked guide, I made a custom lircd.conf (see attachment: )

The thing is that some buttons give the same codes:

INFO and MENU button have the same code 0x17CD

and the buttons SUBTITLE/CLOSED CAPTION/ # have the same code 0x17CE

This is likely because I used a harmony to simulate yours. Perhaps you don't even have some of the mentioned buttons on the Hauppauge remote. But as I said: Simply follow the guide to create your own lircd.conf and it will work this time with the hauppage remote. Seems to be a pretty appropriate one for LibreELEC

Hello,

many thanks for the lircd.conf.

I have tried it. But it does not work. irw also does not generate any output.
I think the reason is not the lircd.conf but something else.

If I try to generate my own lircd.conf file with irrecord I get the following error message:

Code

Now hold down button "KEY_OK".
Something went wrong: Cannot decode data
Too many errors.


Check TROUBLESHOOTING in irrecord(1) manpage.
Or try using the -f option.
Unrecoverable error: Cannot decode data


Giving up
Check TROUBLESHOOTING in irrecord manpage.

And there is no file created.

The command "mode2 -d /dev/lirc0"generates an output if pressing a key on the remote. See the attached file.

Have you an idea what is going wrong?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards

Hello,

sorry but I need your assistance once again.

I want to use the remote Hauppauge PVR 350.
I have a lircd.conf file for this remote and copy it to /storage/.config and rebooted the Odroid C2 with LibreELEC.

But it does not work.
irw does not generate any output.
mode2 -d /dev/lirc0 does generate an output when pressing any key on the remote.

ir-keytable generates the following output:

Code

Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event6) with:

lsmod generates the following output:

hi @hru,

I've now programmed my Harmony 950 to use your Pioneer BDP-180 profile and unfortunately I can confirm your issue.

Apparently only the cursors and cannel buttons result in discrete lirc codes:

all the other buttons are recognized as 0x817E ir code. Thats really strange, never saw this behaviour on one of my remotes hm :/... I'm afraid you will have to use another remote hmm...

But anyways, why not use HDMI CEC, i.e. use your TV's remote to control the C2?

My test lircd.conf with your remote profile:

Hello,

thank you very much for your assistance.
I will now try to use another remote.

I do not use CEC because the TV is too old for CEC;-)

hmmm strange.... :/... could you name the exact model of the pioneer bluray player? So I could program my Harmony Remote to imitate your pioneer remote and try it myself. Untunately I cannot promise to do it this weekend, I rather think that I could test it during next week.

Have you tried it with another remote instead of the pioneers one?

Hello,

the bluray player is a Pioneer BDP-180
The remote is labeled "RC-2435".

No until now I have not tried another remote. But I should do so.

Many thanks in advance!

Hello,

thank you for the information.

I have some problems generating my own lirc.conf with irrecord.
For nearly all the buttons of the remote irrecord recognizes the same code.
Thats very strange.

Hello,

I have the current release installed on Odroid C2 (LibreELEC-Odroid_C2.aarch64-7.90.010).
Everything works fine but the remote is not working.

I want to use the remote of my bluray player (Pioneer) with the Odroid C2 and LibreELEC with the build in IR receiver.

If I run irw there is nothing recognized.

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Best regards

Hartmut
