Hi, In response to my problem of needing either a combined serial port based IR receiver and transmitter, or using two serial based devices simultaneously, I was wondering if any other users have had the same problem and have had success using one serial port and converting a USB port into another serial port to use two devices.
I am sure this is entirely possible, but is LIRC easy to setup in this manner? and more importantly, can anyone recommend a particular brand of USB-serial convertor known to work under Linux (FC2/FCx etc) that should give me the least problems. (or do they either all work the same or not at all?) As I don't have (or don't think I have!) the skills to solder a combined unit myself, this seems like the best way of solving my current problem. The Hauppauge remotes are really too small, and the Sky+ Navigator remote just sits there on the table tempting me to finally bring it to life! As I'm in the UK, any online or high-streets outlets would be a bonus. Cheers, Nick -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
