Is it usual to see that my Sony TV remote with cec works much better then my 5$ ODROID IR Remote? It seems to be a bit too slow and not really responsive compared to CEC. Am I missing something and have to do something to optimize the Odroid remote (I like its simple design and would like to use it)? I know it's a 5$ remote...

Btw, thanks wrxtasy, your OE builds are amazing.

I do not have a HK $5 remote control but did custom configure my unused BD remote buttons on my Sony TV IR Remote to operate with Lirc on the C1. Its pretty snappy.

Mini Guide to setting up any IR remote on the C1/C2:
=====================================

1) ssh into the C1 (IP address on Kodi Settings > Sysinfo > Network screen)

Code:

ssh [email protected]

1.5) NOTE If you already have a MCE Remote you may only need to, (and then reboot and your done)

Code:

cp /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.rpi /storage/.config/lircd.conf

2) Custom record your Lirc IR remote: (Copy and paste one line at a time)

Code:

killall lircd
irrecord --device /dev/lirc0 /storage/.config/lircd.conf

3) After following the instructions presented you will end up here:

Please enter the name for the next button (press <ENTER> to finish recording)

The "name(s) for the next button" comes from here: (KEY_LEFT KEY_RIGHT etc)

Code:

irrecord --list-namespace

4) Further tweaking of the lircd.conf file may be needed for Button repeat operation.
Modify this section of lircd.conf, you may need to remove the #

Code:

nano .config/lircd.conf

CTRL-X to exit

min_repeat 4
# suppress_repeat 3
# uncomment to suppress unwanted repeats

5) To restart Lirc with the new lircd.conf:

Code:

killall -HUP lircd

6) To test if the correct Remote Control buttons are mapped to the correct Lirc names:

Code:

irw

CTRL-C to stop

W.

Since the GPU drivers fix went in, the first press on the remote has some sort of tiny delay. I have not found a fix for that yet.
