How can I get XBMC to use winlirc for ir blasting? - halogamer2145 - 2014-11-05
I have to decode the functions of my receivers remote using winlirc and a receiver first and save it to a config. I need XBMC to send commands to the receiver when I want to switch the channel. I know you can control XBMC with winlirc, but is there a way that I could blast ir signals when I input a command into XBMC or if a recording is scheduled have XBMC switch to the appropriate channel through ir? Winlirc has a command line application in which you can execute recorded commands, so idk if that could be used with XBMC.

It is the function of the PVR backend to change channels, not XBMC.
