Hello, I just installed Ubuntu Karmic and XBMC form PPA repositories.
On Jaunty I had 2 files to config the lirc:
Code:
cat .xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml
<lircmap>
<remote device="RM-ED006">
<forward>ford</forward>
<reverse>back</reverse>
<skipminus>atzea</skipminus>
<skipplus>aurrea</skipplus>
<pageplus>mas</pageplus>
<pageminus>menos</pageminus>
<play>play</play>
<skipplus>aurrea</skipplus>
<skipminus>atzea</skipminus>
<info>info</info>
<left>left</left>
<right>right</right>
<up>up</up>
<down>down</down>
<select>enter</select>
<back>menu</back>
<stop>stop</stop>
<power>shut</power>
<pause>pause</pause>
</remote>
</lircmap>
Code:
$ cat .xbmc/userdata/Keymap.xml
<keymap>
<global>
<remote>
<forward>ford</forward>
<reverse>back</reverse>
<skipminus>atzea</skipminus>

<pause>Pause</pause>
<power>shut</power>
<skipnext>aurrea</skipnext>
<skipprevious>atzea</skipprevious>
</remote>
</global>
</keymap>
I try to copy thoose files on the userdata directory but it doesn't work. Now I have a "keymaps" directory on userdata.
This is my lirc configuration:
Code:
$ cat /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
begin remote
name RM-ED006
bits 12
flags SPACE_ENC|CONST_LENGTH
eps 30
aeps 100
header 2408 572

6 0xA1A
7 0x61A
8 0xE1A
9 0x11A
0 0x91A

left 0x47A
right 0x87A

play 0x59A
pause 0x99A

aurrea 0x95A
menu 0xB3A
shut 0xA9A
info 0x5BA
mas 0x09A
menos 0x89A
end codes
end remote
Can you help with this? I will apreciate any help.
Thanks for all and best regards.
I try to copy the old Keymap.xml to /keymaps/remote.xml but it doesn't work.
Anyone has tehe same problem?
Thanks for all.
I am running Live Alpha and the files in userdata do nothing like how you're experiencing. What works for me right now is disregarding that folder and instead putting the file(s) here:
"/usr/share/xbmc/system/keymaps/remote.xml" without quotes of course
Egun on!
I had a customized lircd.conf for my Harmony remote and it stopped working when upgrading to Karmic. After some hair pulling, I found the codes for lircd.conf had changed, so you cannot give arbitrary names to button functions.
So, if your problem is like mine, you have to match the right codes to the remote in lircd.conf. For the whole list, try irrecord -l .
Agur.
Eskerrik asko! (Thanks in Euskera language)
I try to copy my config to /usr/share...:
Code:
$ cat /usr/share/xbmc/system/keymaps/remote.xml
<keymap>
<global>
<remote>
<forward>ford</forward>
<reverse>back</reverse>
<skipminus>atzea</skipminus>
<skipplus>aurrea</skipplus>
<pageplus>mas</pageplus>
<pageminus>menos</pageminus>
<play>play</play>
<info>info</info>
<left>Left</left>
<right>Right</right>
<up>Up</up>
<down>Down</down>
<select>Select</select>
<back>PreviousMenu</back>
<volumeplus>VolUp</volumeplus>
<volumeminus>VolDown</volumeminus>
<mute>Mute</mute>
<stop>Stop</stop>
<pause>Pause</pause>
<power>shut</power>
<skipnext>aurrea</skipnext>
<skipprevious>atzea</skipprevious>
</remote>
</global>
</keymap>
But it doesn't work.
I have same problem that sinarquia, i upgrade to Karmic and the remote stop to work, so now I have a fresh Karmic install. So I need to chane my lircd.conf names to thoose ones?

And where I must store XBMC lirc config?
.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml or .xbmc/userdata/Keymap.xml
Thanks for all.
Hi,
You should try to copy your lircd.conf into /usr/share/lirc/remotes.
This of course depends on the content of /etc/lirc/hardware.conf and especially on this line :
REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="lircd.conf"
It worked for me and my ATI Remote Wonder.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Pascal.
Yes, I had to change the "old" button names to the new ones.
For instance, where in my previous /etc/lircd/lircd.conf I had Channel+, I had to change it with KEY_CHANNELUP.
Repeat with every other label -names are pretty obvious-, and then change the names in XBMC too(for me, the file is .xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml).
Keep in mind that in order to edit lircd.conf you will need root privileges.
Ohhh!!! Thanks for all! I've got it!!! Now all buttons are working perfect. This is my configuration:
Code:
$ cat /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
# /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
#
#Chosen Remote Control
REMOTE="MCE"
REMOTE_MODULES="lirc_mceusb lirc_dev"
REMOTE_DRIVER="default"

TRANSMITTER_LIRCD_CONF=""

#Enable lircd

#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="true"
# 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=""

I really don't understand the function of Keymap.xml and Lircmap.xml files, but it works.
Thanks for all!
