In the Add Your Own Remote section, "killall lircd" says that lircd isn't running at all. Then "ir-keytable -p LIRC" returns "Couldn't find any node at /sys/class/rc/rc*." When I run "irrecord /storage/.config/lircd.conf" in this section however, I can see that it is recognizing each key pressed.

Later under troubleshooting, "irw /var/run/lirc/lircd-lirc0" gives me a connection refused error.

The remotes work fine under stock OE as well as rbej's builds, Any further suggestions?

I am having trouble with lirc too but I can get it working until reboot with:

Code:
modprobe lirc_rpi
killall lircd; /usr/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --uinput --output=/var/run/lirc/lircd --pidfile=/var/run/lirc/lircd-lirc0.pid /storage/.config/lircd.conf
Thank you so much for this - at last I can use my gpio receiver with the latest builds and their enhancements.
A few of my custom buttons don't work but I can live with that.
By the way, how did you come up with that 2nd command?

Quote:I have tried adding this to autostart.sh but it seems as if the second line has to be run after the gui is loaded for it to work.
Since I leave my pi mostly on all of the time I can also live with having to ssh and executing the command on the odd occasion I have to reboot.

Quote:On these latest builds is the OpenELEC settings addon working? On mine it says the addon "is not ready, please try again later", is anyone else getting this?
The OpenELEC settings works for me - it's showing as version 0.3.7 with MilhouseVH's latest build. I have noticed in the past that the settings were not working the first time after a new update but a reboot seemed to fix it.


@MilhouseVH - It appears that not only was I barking up the wrong tree but I was also in the wrong forest!
