Hello Jeff,

You will only be able to use remotes that use RC5 protocol with the built-in
IR receiver on the PVR card, as I understand it.

Fair enough, but as I understand it, the RC5 protocol is quite common, if so, how can 7 out of 9 (including Hauppauge's own remote) not work? This is for a variety of devices, DVD player, 2 x TV, VCR, 2 x digital STB, HiFi and a videophone. That strikes me a bit strange?


You shouldn't need to do that. The lircrc will handle that just find without
irxevent. I just got mine almost working (lousy modelines giving me trouble)
and didn't have to mess with more than editing the above lircrc to match my
remote and the keynames I used in irrecord. It can be a pain if you have a remote with fewer keys than that, though, as the one I'm using now does.

Well, when using the remote with Mythfrontend, it wouldn't work unless I ran irxevent and run mythfrontend in the same terminal window - running irxevent and mythfrontend in a different terminal window wouldn't work.


Thanks very much for your help

Cheers - Piers
