<pre wrap="">One quick question on the IguanaIR: This is the dual channel
transceiver. Is that supposed to have any LED or the like that would
light up when receiving like the MCE does? Mine stays totally dark.
I'd like to know if it might just be defective.
Thanks
Tom

<pre wrap="">Wow...now I'm really starting to wonder if this IguanaIR unit isn't
just plain bad. I just dug out an old remote from a Phillips DVD
player I had. That works with my MCE USB receiver and the rc-6
protocol just fine, but again, gets absolutely nothing from using the
IguanaIR with rc-6. That sort of rules out any issue with NEC
specifically. I hope someone can answer my question as to whether
those are supposed to light up.

I have never seen anything light up on the IguanaIR. <br>

I have not used it for a while, but it worked very well when I did
use it. It is however a bit of a pain to set up. You need to install
the IguanaIR driver from their web site and set up LIRC. The LIRC
that came with UBUNTU did not include the IguanaIR support and I had
to download lirc and compile it myself with IguanaIR support.<br>
<br>
You need to find or create an lircd.conf file that matches your
remote. There is a web site with configuration files for many
remotes. If you do not find yours there you can create it using the
irrecord utility.<br>
<br>
You need to start by reading the documentation and instructions on
the Iguanair web site. They are fairly comprehensive.<br>
