Interfacing IR via ssh?
#1
I found a working copy of lsof and I was able to see that the IR port is /dev/cu.mcu-comm0 and the socket is located at /tmp/hidmonitordsocket. I was wondering if there was any way to interface with the hidmonitord directly? I tried to echo some random data into the socket and got a "Operation not supported on socket" error. I killed the daemon and tried tailing the device and mashing the remote, but I don't see anything.

It would be beyond awesome if I could control XMBC via ssh or via a network socket via netcat.

I apologize if this is not the right forum, but this just happens to be the only ATV forum I browse.

Any pointers would be appreciated.

Thanks
