A couple things. First, if you compile mythtv with the standard settings, you need to use lirc through irxevent and irexec in the ~/.lircrc or ~/.mythtv/lircrc config file. This, I have not done and don't exactly know how to do. Instead, for Myth 0.17, the following worked for me (I also am using the PVR 350 remote receiver, BTW, and my remote is the silver one):
Once I got irw to talk to lircd OK (as you seem to have done) I uncommented the two lines after "Native lirc support" in the "settings.pro" file of the mythtv source, so they appear as follows # Native lirc support CONFIG += using_lirc LIRC_LIBS = -llirc_client and recompiled and reinstalled mythtv. Then in my ~/.mythtv/lircrc file I put the entries in the form: begin prog = mythtv button = CH+ repeat = 4 config = Up end (as opposed to irxevent and CurrentWindow and all that) and everything worked fine ever since. Note that ~/.mythtv/lircrc needs to be in the home directory of the user you are launching mythfrontend as. Hope this helps. --- Don <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm not sure whether I should be posting this here > or the ivtv list, I > guess it could be either.
