First you must disable IR remote control in the web tweaks tab and
reboot before proceeding.
Next, install pcp-lircd from the extensions webgui. Reboot if needed.
Next, ensure squeezelite is stopped.
Code:
--------------------
sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/squeezelite stop
--------------------
Plug in your FLIRC and find the name.
Code:
--------------------
$ cat /proc/bus/input/devices
I: Bus=0003 Vendor=20a0 Product=0001 Version=0101
N: Name="flirc.tv flirc"
P: Phys=usb-20980000.usb-1.3/input0
S:
Sysfs=/devices/platform/soc/20980000.usb/usb1/1-1/1-1.3/1-1.3:1.0/0003:20A0:0001.0001/input/input0
U: Uniq=
H: Handlers=sysrq kbd event0
B: PROP=0
B: EV=10001f
B: KEY=3007f 0 0 0 0 483ffff 17aff32d bf544446 0 0 1 130c13 b17c000 267bfa
d941dfed e09effdf 1cfffff ffffffff fffffffe
B: REL=40
B: ABS=1 0
B: MSC=10
--------------------
Start inputlircd from the command line while testing. I've found the
following options work best.
$ sudo /usr/local/sbin/inputlircd -n "flirc.tv flirc" -m 0 -g -r 300 -c
Run irw and press each key. Note with keycode that is generated for
which key.
Code:
--------------------
$ irw
29 0 KEY_C /dev/input/event0
19 0 KEY_P /dev/input/event0{/code]
For example my slimdevices remote PAUSE key sends KEY_C and PLAY sends KEY_P.
The codes from your flirc will likely be different as I'm using an old flirc
config which I created for use with jivelite on my wandboard, since I don't
want to reprogram my flirc.
Stop irw by pressing control-C
Create a file mapping of the keycode from your remote to a corresponding
keycode squeezelite operation.
For example:
Code:
--------------------
$ cat /home/tc/inputlircd.keymap
KEY_C = KEY_PAUSE
KEY_P = KEY_PLAY
--------------------
The list of squeezelite IR keycodes can be found 'here'
(https://github.com/ralph-irving/squeezelite/blob/master/ir.c#L103)
Restart inputlircd from the command line adding the mapping file to test.
sudo /usr/local/sbin/inputlircd -n "flirc.tv flirc" -m 0 -g -r 300 -f -c -t
/home/tc/inputlircd.keymap
Start squeeelite with the -i option and -d ir=debug to test if the keys work.
You can ignore the error reading the ir config. It's not needed for inputlircd
Note that you need at least squeezelite version 1.9.7-1237 for this to work.
Code:
--------------------
$ squeezelite -d ir=debug -i
[11:28:55.788622] load_lirc:242 loaded liblirc_client.so.0
[11:28:55.791797] ir_init:261 error reading config: ~/.lircrc
[11:28:57.951369] ir_thread:199 ir lirc: KEY_PLAY [0] -> 768910ef
[11:29:05.246239] ir_thread:199 ir lirc: KEY_PAUSE [0] -> 768920df
--------------------
Once you're happy with the key map file, backup your pcp config and confirm
the mapping file is in the backup.
Code:
--------------------
$ tar -tvf mydata.tgz | grep input
-rw-r--r-- ralphy/users 35 2020-08-01 11:20:21
home/tc/inputlircd.keymap
--------------------
Now in the webgui.
Put /usr/local/sbin/inputlircd -n "flirc.tv flirc" -m 0 -g -r 300 -c -t
/home/tc/inputlircd.keymap in one of the user commands and also add -i to
squeezelite various options field on the squeezelite tab.
Backup your config once more and reboot.
