[mythtv-users] Lirc problems

[Rage321]

I had a similar problem.  In my channel changing script, I had to add
this...
 
sub change_SIGNAL {
    my($SIGNAL) = @_;
    system ("$rc_command SEND_ONCE $remote_name $SIGNAL");
    system ("sleep 1");
    system ("$rc_command SEND_ONCE $remote_name MNSELECT");
}
 
...for it to play nice...
 
Honestly, I think if I were to grab the remote now and punch in some numbers
that it wouldn't input them all.  Recording, on the other hand, has been
flawless with channel selection for over 2 months.
 
I have an RC6 remote and here is part of my lircd.conf...
 
begin remote
 
  name mceusb
  bits           16
  flags RC6|CONST_LENGTH
  eps            30
  aeps          100
 
  header       2667   889
  one           444   444
  zero          444   444
  pre_data_bits 21
  pre_data      0x37FF0
  gap          105000
  toggle_bit     22
  rc6_mask     0x100000000
 
...notice the gap.

I have successfully installed and tested lirc. I can control the
mythfrontend and change channels, sort of, on my stb. I have a Philips 6172
box, and I had to use irrecord to get the codes in raw format. I can change
channels, but not consistently. It works for almost all of the single
numbers, sometimes it will work then I try again and it does not work. The
main issue that I have is with multi digit channels, if I press 23 with my
channel changing script I usually get just 2.

 

Any ideas.
