Ok, so my ~/.lirc/mythtv file looks like this:<br>
<br>
begin<br>
remote = devinput-32<br>
prog = mythtv<br>
button = left<br>
config = left<br>
end <br>
<br>
Etc.<br>
<br>
My ~/.lircrc file looks like this:<br>
<br>
include ~/.lirc/mythtv<br>
<br>
And I can see the key presses in irw<br>
<br>
I’ve restarted my front end and it’s still not working - there’s got to be something else, obvious, that I’m just not spotting - any ideas?<br>
<br>
(Just noticed, this thread is actually about controlling a set top box, not controlling the frontend, sorry about hijacking it - this should have stayed in the other thread)<br>
<br>
