This is starting to drive me nuts.. I have a DViCO Dual Digital card and<br>I just cant get the remote working. I have both tuners working fine (I<br>need a small signal booster, but thats a different problem) but I cant<br>
even get the remote to detect as a device. Everything I have read says<br>it will show up as a HID USB device, but no matter what I do I just cant<br>get it to work. The only thing that even looks remotely promising is<br>
that lsmod is showing ir_common has been loaded. ANY help would be much<br>appreciated as I've been at it for a few weeks now and gotten nowhere.<br>_______________________________________________<br>mythtv-users mailing list

I have the remote you referred to and struggled as well.
The key for
me was getting the right .lircrc and lirc.conf file. The standard
Dvico one doesn't
work. I attached mine for you. Note that I customized some
of the buttons to work well with MythTV. You may have different
preferences. When you run the Lirc setup choose USB, Dvico.
That will set it
up for usb/hiddev0. After that is done, get the right .lirc
file and
copy it to the right location. Run lircd. At that
point run irrecord,
just to see if it is getting the signal from your remote. If
not,
post what you see in lirc log. <br>
The only other thing I had to do was I ran a script that was
suppose to autostart lircd. I had to go into the .init area and
edit that file so it said usb/hiddev0 instead or lirc0. Don't
bother doing that until you are getting something from irrecord or irw.<br>
