Hi!
I'm having a really hard time trying to get my RC-6 MCE Remote (eHome Infrared Receiver) to work over a Xantech IR extender / repeater. The remote works just fine in front of the usb sensor/dongle, but when I try to use the remote over the extender, it doesn't work.
I setup the blaster right in front of the dongle, and when I press the remote, the LED on the dongle itself lights up, but irw (lirc) does not recognize the keypresses.
Does anybody have any experience with this? If not, can anybody recommend an IR receiver that works with a remote extender?
Thanks!
