[mythtv-users] mceusb transmitter - irsend no errors but no output

[Dan Klosterman]

    I recently purchased an HP Media Center Ed. FINTEK eHome Infrared
    Transceiver (1934:5168).  Using the mceusb driver, I have the
    receiver part working just fine using Mythbuntu 11.04 (and for that
    matter, I had the receiver working in Ubuntu 10.04 and Ubuntu 10.10
    as well.)  But I have yet to get the transmitter to work.  I can run
    irsend without errors,  but using a digital camera, I cannot see any
    signals being output from the transmitter (obviously it doesn't
    change my cable box channel either.)  I get a /dev/lirc0 and a 
/dev/lircd.  I do NOT have lirc-modules-source installed.  I know 
that it is a Scientific Atlanta Cable box, because a different system 
used a serial IR blaster to control the same cable box.




    My /etc/lirc/hardware.conf is:



# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

#

#Chosen Remote Control

REMOTE="Windows Media Center Transceivers/Remotes (all)"

REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_dev mceusb"

REMOTE_DRIVER=""

REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/lirc0"

REMOTE_SOCKET=""

REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb"

REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""



#Chosen IR Transmitter

TRANSMITTER="Microsoft Windows Media Center V2 (usb) : Scientific Atlanta Cable box"

TRANSMITTER_MODULES="lirc_dev mceusb"

TRANSMITTER_DRIVER=""

TRANSMITTER_DEVICE=""

TRANSMITTER_SOCKET=""

TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_CONF="scientificatlanta/general.conf"

TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_ARGS=""



#Enable lircd

START_LIRCD="true"



#Don't start lircmd even if there seems to be a good config file

#START_LIRCMD="false"



#Try to load appropriate kernel modules

LOAD_MODULES="false"



# Default configuration files for your hardware if any

LIRCMD_CONF=""



#Forcing noninteractive reconfiguration

#If lirc is to be reconfigured by an external application

#that doesn't have a debconf frontend available, the noninteractive

#frontend can be invoked and set to parse REMOTE and TRANSMITTER

#It will then populate all other variables without any user input

#If you would like to configure lirc via standard methods, be sure

#to leave this set to "false"

FORCE_NONINTERACTIVE_RECONFIGURATION="false"                                                                                                                         
 

START_LIRCMD=""               





Thanks for any help.
