I have installed 17.10 on a apollo lake machine and if I install lirc it messes up totally. It gets 'stuck' on any button down. It repeats forever. If I remove lirc it works better but only a few buttons work in kodi.

Is there a mapping file I need to make it work in kodi with ir-keytable instead of lirc? And if so where can I find a ready made one?

Output from ir-keytable

Code:

Good that lirc is obsolete nowadays :-). Please open your own thread.
