Thank you Xiaofan Installed pyusb-1.0 and it worked like a charm.
My goal is to use an old usb irda dongle with SigmaTel chipset to record IR impulses from the electric system in my house. The electric device omits an IR impulse at the speed of 1000 impulses/kWh and my aim is to register the time between these pulses to compute what electric effect my whole house is consuming at the moment. I pointed my tv remot towards the dongle when I did a read operation: >>> dev.read(0x82,7) array('B', [255]) It's a long shot but does anyone know how to interpret the result from read()? /Tomas Xiaofan Chen skrev 2011-02-22 09:26: > On Tue, Feb 22, 2011 at 2:00 PM, Tomas Hektor<tomas.hek...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> I ran the pyusb-0.4.3.win32-py2.6.exe.
