<br>
My remote control with my PVR-150 was working great when I used the
packaged install (mythtv-suite). Then I decided I wanted to tweak some of
the plugin settings, so I decided to build from source.<br>
<br>
I have built from source and got basically everything working like it
used to, but my remote control doesnt work with mythtv anymore.<br>
<br>
When I compiled, the ./configure script reported lirc support : yes<br>
<br>
I can still run my remote with irw, the messages are received correctly
(lircd is running).<br>
<br>
I can also use the remote with irxevent piping the remote commands to
mythtv.<br>
<br>
However, Id really prefer to get native remote control support in mythtv
so I could use my existing lircrc file.<br>
<br>
I searched the archive with nothing pointing directly to my problem.<br>
<br>
Thoughts?<br>
<br>
Any log files I should post to help the members of this great community
to figure out whats going on?<br>

There are some reports that ivtv causes the remote to stop working after
a while. Does it come back for a short period if you reboot? On the ivtv
list there was a patch which basically puts in an IR reset into the code.
There are also patches to do the same with a once a minute cron job. This
might not be your case where you say it works with irw.<br>

That is an interesting idea, but a couple things: Concerning reboot: it
makes no difference. The remote _<i>always</i>_ works with irw and
irxevent, but _<i>never</i>_ in mythtv. I did compile ivtv from source
whereas before I was using the pre-built binaries in the package install,
so what you say is possible, but since it works with irw always, I
wouldn’t think the problem is with the driver. Other thoughts? TIA,

Well, the lircrc file is what controls the functionality away from irw.
Are you sure it didn't get corrupted/overwritten?</body>
