I did have both the transmitter and receiver configs in the same lircd.conf file. Once it all went pear shaped however I reverted back to the lircd.conf file specified in Jarod's guide so I could see if I could get the standard PVR-350 remote working again. To date I have had little joy in getting this basic config back up and working. I know that the hardware is basically working since I can use irrecord to generate a new lircd.conf for the Hauppauge remote. It works for about two thirds of the buttons (and I figure could maybe be made to work for the rest with some manual tweaking). If I make a new config file like this using irrecord, put it in place in /etc and then run irw I can see some button presses. This tends to tell me that lircd is running and that the hardware is OK. Am stumped as to why the old conf file no longer works for this remote. Regards Marty
