[mythtv-users] MythTV, LIRC and TiVo

[Graham W. Mitchell]

Thanks for the file... I've given it a try tonight, and still getting errors.... I've also managed to get irrecord to work, but I'm getting 'timeout reading byte X' where X is various different values depending on which key I am pressing..

Here's what I've been using:

I made it using irrecord without any problems. You may have some other
