Sweet guide, I finally have the LCD up and running and also the remote!

Hey,
I've noticed that if you play a movie and you 'summon' the OSD, you only get a thin menu bar with a movie description. If you do the same on the keyboard you get the option to load subs and change audio languages. Any hints on how to get this done? (using MediaStream)

if you map <start>applaunch</start> to a button (in my case Applaunch) it will open up the options for subs, audio and bookmarks.

Here is my lircmap for the RM200 in xbmc (put under your home folder and .xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml ) I will remap the keys on my Logitech Harmony so the keys might not make sense to everyones taste, the number keys for navigation etc.

Code:

<lircmap>
<remote device="rm200d1.conf">
        <left>left</left>
        <right>right</right>
        <select>enter</select>
        <back>escape</back>
        <one>1</one>
                <left>4</left>
                <right>6</right>
                <up>2</up>
                <down>8</down>
                <select>5</select>
        <three>3</three>
        <seven>7</seven>
        <nine>9</nine>
        <zero>0</zero>
    </remote>

    <remote device="rm200d2.conf">
        <up>up</up>
        <pause>pause</pause>
        <stop>stop</stop>
        <forward>ffwd</forward>
        <reverse>frev</reverse>
        <pageplus>chp</pageplus>
        <pageminus>chm</pageminus>
        <back>back</back>
        <menu>menu</menu>
        <title>go</title>
        <info>timer</info>
        <skipplus>skipfw</skipplus>
        <skipminus>skipback</skipminus>
        <display>tasksw</display>
        <start>applaunch</start>
        <title>play</title>
        <record>rec</record>
        <volumeplus>volp</volumeplus>
        <volumeminus>volm</volumeminus>
        <mute>mute</mute>
        <power>exit</power>
        <myvideo>film</myvideo>
        <mymusic>music</mymusic>
        <mypictures>pics</mypictures>
        <mytv>tv</mytv>
    </remote>
</lircmap>

One problem i have tho is the crontab autorun, is seems like it only loads the first .conf file but starts two lircd, so after a reboot if i run irw and tries any key from the first part of the config it shows the keypress but not from the other conf. I tried both with two separate files like this:

Code:

@reboot root /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --pidfile=/var/run/lirc0.pid  --listen=8765 /etc/rm200d1.conf
@reboot root /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc1 --pidfile=/var/run/lirc1.pid --connect localhost:8765 --output=/dev/lircd /etc/rm200d2.conf

Or with the two conf files in the same /etc/lircd.conf like this:

Code:

@reboot root /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 --pidfile=/var/run/lirc0.pid --listen=8765
@reboot root /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc1 --pidfile=/var/run/lirc1.pid --output=/dev/lircd --connect=localhost:8765

When i check with ps -A | grep lircd i can see both running.
Only when i kill the processes and run them manually with sudo it loads both

Does anyone have a clue on what i did wrong or another solution to autorun the lircd?

And i would also know if there is a way to set contrast and brightness for the display if possible (especially if there is a way to turn off the backlight during shutdown)
