Hi all ! This mail is for UMC team and Elisa Team but I know that Lirc team is also concerned
According to yesterday's meeting ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MediaCenter/IRCMeeting20070725), I post some information about the lirc applet and the work realised about an GUI for Irrecord : - Lirc applet, named glirc : The first version, a beta (after the alpha 0.0.1) is out glirc 0.1. Many thanks to you Denis Gautherot for his help, he has made very very good work (particularly the integration with gconf to store preference's user). A .deb will be available as soon as possible. You can test it at http://d.gardon.free.fr/vase/umc/glirc-0.1.tar.gz . Be careful the archive contains files, but they are not structured. So some functionality (like preferences) won't work. But you can read the code, run it (python glirc.pyrun-in-window) and send feedback. Currently the applet allow you to run irexec, restart and stop it. An icon shows if irexec is running or not. See it and send feedback ;) - GUI for irrecord, girrecord : A little tool to use irrecord with a GUI. Actually in alpha version, you can dowload it (at your own risks ;)) here : http://d.gardon.free.fr/vase/umc/girecord-0.0.1.tar.gz. for the moment I've some problem with irrecord (don't work) and in the ml of Lirc no one respond to my request. This to say that for the moment girrecord works with irw to catch ir code. You have some buttons, for example KEY_PLAY, and after a click on it, you press a button on your remote control. It assigne it. Just this for the moment. But Christoph said me that use irw is not a good idea, so... But the same things can be applied to Elisa. It allow the user to configure very easily his remote control. I read some documentation on the Track of Elisa about plugins but are they very actual ? If some of you can help me, I will develop a plugin for Elisa ;) - END POINT : Create another plugin (reference to the meeting last night) to select your remote control from a list, and copy the right lircd.conf (with the new name space applied). With the lirc.hdwb, it can be very easy. There is just the problem that lircd.conf have the right place in /etc. So must some root privileges. If you have any suggestions for this and to create plugin. Wattazoum maybe you can help me for this point ? Right, I hope you've understand everything with my perfect english :) Be many to respond to my mail ! -- Loïc Dardant
