Ok, so my ~/.lirc/mythtv file looks like this:
begin
remote = devinput-32
prog = mythtv
button = left
config = left
end
Etc.
My ~/.lircrc file looks like this:
include ~/.lirc/mythtv
And I can see the key presses in irw
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?
(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)
Regards,
Dave

I seem to recall Ubuntu's lirc moving it's socket. There is a setting in the frontend settings:
Settings -> General -> Remote Control -> LIRC daemon socket
Make sure that exists on your system (where it points to). If not, fix it I guess :)
I have:
[greg at backend-0 ~]$ ll /var/run/lirc/lircd
srw-rw-rw- 1 lirc lirc 0 Oct 3 16:40 /var/run/lirc/lircd
But I seem to remember having to change it from /dev/lirc0 (or somethign similar) not too long ago.

Thanks Greg,
The LIRC Daemon Socket was incorrect, I’ve corrected that setting and mythtv now successfully initialises /var/run/lirc/lircd using /home/dave/.lircrc
Unfortunately it’s still not working.
Regards,
Dave
