Hi Peter!
I'm just setting up Mythtv an Slimserver on the same machine and i'm
very interrested in controlling mythtv over my SB3 remote.
Can you please document your setup and make the corresponding files
available.
Hi Zed,
The latest plugin is available here:
http://a213-84-196-8.adsl.xs4all.nl/slim2lirc/Lirc.pm
The 'Lirc junction box' application can be found here:
http://a213-84-196-8.adsl.xs4all.nl/slim2lirc/lircjb
You start the lircjb (from /etc/rc.local or manually)
/usr/local/bin/lircjb -l -p 12345 /dev/lircd &
You copy the Lirc.pm plugin to the slimserver Plugin directory and
restart slimserver. Lirc.pm will be sending IR codes it receives over
UDP port 12345 to lircjb.
At this time you should be able to run 'irw' and see the slimremote
buttons you press being echoed. Note: Lirc.pm only captures and
retransmits button presses when a SqueezeBox is off (standby) or when
you've selected 'Lirc Remote' from the Plugin menu.
Now you must edit the mythtv .lircrc file to tell mythtv what buttons to
react to and what to do when they are pressed. Note that Lirc.pm only
forwards codes it recognizes. At the moment that means the slimdevices
remote, but the code mapping can be changed at the end of the Lirc.pm file.
I'd be interested to hear if it works for you.
Regards,
Peter
