[mythtv-users] Troubles with Irtrans VFD

[tim dennis]

Thanks Greg,

I was using the LCDproc 0.4.3 at first with myth 0.20 as well. I actually
used the same very helpful post from the Ubuntu forums to set it up at the
time. I eventually switched to LCDproc 0.5.x as the 0.4.x branch is now
deprecated. I had LCDproc 0.5.1 working fine with myth 0.20.

As far as i know mythlcdserver supports both the 0.4.x and 0.5.x releases of
LCDproc, so it should not matter either way.

Just to be 100% sure I went back yesterday and compiled the customized
LCDproc 0.4.3 which is posted on the IRtrans website but still the same
problem. I am running F8 with myth 0.21.

Thanks for the feedback,

Tim
