I've been happily using Myth (SVN checkouts every month or so) for about
4 months.  My setup at the moment is as follows:

Hauppauge Nova-T DVB-T PCI (two of them)
AMD x86_64 system
Fedora Core 4 - all up to date
MythTV SVN revision 8053

Has anyone had this happen to them?  Have you managed to solve the
problem and get your Hauppauge remote fully working?
Yep, had me confused for a short while. The IR is recognised automatically, you'll find if you *don't* use lirc it'll still work (well the up/down/ok etc) with mythfrontend.

What you need to do is use it with the dev/input driver[1], setup lirc to use driver dev/input and device /dev/input/event<event number> where <event number> is where the events are picked up. eg mine is /dev/input/event2 , from the sound of it yours would be /dev/input/event
FWIW I'm running twin Nova-T's in a 2.8GHz P4 and Opensuse 10.0

I've attached my lircd.conf for the Nova-T remote as well.

[1] You may well have to recompile if you didn't include dev/input support ISTR I had to recompile but worth a try with the std rpms' first as that might just have been me trying different things.

Yay!  It's working!  I recompiled lirc with the --driver=devinput option
and started lircd with the command line 'lircd --driver=dev/input
--device=/dev/input/event0' then 'irxevent &'.

I've remapped a few of the buttons in /home/mythtv/.lircrc so they make
more sense to me and my GF.

Thanks for the hints. :)

I struggled for about a month with this. Eventually, I ended up modifying budget-ci.c to make the remote work. I found that the Nova-t doesn't use LIRC at all, the only problem being that I have to recompile everytime I install a new kernel.

Your method seems so much easier, so I'll have to give it a go!

Cheers,

Adrian.
