Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mythbuntu-control-centre
I have a bttv card (Winfast 2000XP card=34) and chose the card in the drop-down list of remotes in Jaunty Mythbuntu. I thought this would set up the card, but it did not. I have now made this work and feel that the steps that I took could be automated (see my "Answer" at: https://answers.launchpad.net/mythbuntu/+question/54983 , made into a script and run whenever somebody chose this card from the list. $ grep -A 4 bttv /proc/bus/input/devices will give the input device at the end of the last line: N: Name="bttv IR (card=34)" P: Phys=pci-0000:03:07.0/ir0 S: Sysfs=/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.4/0000:03:07.0/input/input6 U: Uniq= H: Handlers=kbd event6 Ship http://linux.bytesex.org/v4l2/linux-input-layer-lircd.conf with MCC and put it in /etc/lircd.conf at this stage. Then generate a *correct* /etc/lirc/hardware.conf to read: # /etc/lirc/hardware.conf # #Chosen Remote Control REMOTE="Winfast TV2000/XP (card" REMOTE_MODULES="bttv" REMOTE_DRIVER="dev/input" REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/input/[EVENTNUM FROM ABOVE]" REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="leadtek/lircd.conf.RM-0010" REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS="" I'm happy to test any scripts that are proposed. The problem with a GUI that says it configures LIRC for the bttv remote is that you expect it to work when you select it. I was quite disappointed to have to figure it out for myself (by asking on the LIRC list). ** Affects: mythbuntu-control-centre (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- MCC doesn't set up bttv IR remote - should use dev/input https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371109 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
