hiya,
yeah foxtel ships the same remote with all STBs, and apparently it sends out all three commands at once...which confuses the lirc reciever...i have no idea how the guy who captured the codes did it, or who he is but THANKS! like i said i lucked out and came across the lirc conf file.

i just start the lirc demon with "lircd /etc/lirc_pacestb.conf".

I had dreadful dramas trying to capture IR data from foxtel remote...the remote sends out multiple commands to work with different set-top boxes and it was too much for my cumbersome lirc skills. luckily someone posted the pace Satellite STB lirc.conf file and i was able to use that...got no idea where i got it from but if that's the STB you've got, i'll send it through.




Ahh, so it could be that all Foxtel STB's use the one type of remote?
The STB I have is a Pace STB-120 (IIRC).

Would you mind sending me the config you mentioned (and an explanation of
what it took to get this working on your machine)?

This is unrelated but I'm currently having all sorts of problems with lircd.
Don't know what I have done to upset it. I had it working nicely with my
Hauppage remote a while ago but now it seems to die with 'lircd dead but
subsys locked' anytime I try to run anything that uses it (irw, mythfrontend
etc).

Talk about frustrating.



Regards
Marty
