I also just figured out have have my old /etc/lirc/lircd.conf file which defines the key/button mappings to english description. More specifically, it's using the second of two remote button mappings generated by devinput.sh ($ wget http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/devinput/lircd.conf.devinput) >>*TODO: How do I map /dev/input/event8 when there is no /dev/input/by-id path >>as /dev/input/event? will change at each reboot? > >I'm still stumped here. OK. I have a solution using a dynamically named dev/input device. Per the lircd man page, you can use -d name="" or phys="" including wildcards. You can find the device name/phys by using the following command and searching for the Hauppauge IR device: # systool -c input -v |less The following works for the hvr-1950: # lircd -n -H dev/input -d name="i2c IR (WinTV HVR-1950 Model 75" (It might be advisable to use a wildcard to adjust for the missing parenthesis. ie: "*WinTV HVR-1950 Model 75". Not only this, but the Gentoo rc conf file requires a short string such as *HVR-1950* to be able to work properly.) Funny. I just want to use one or two buttons on the remote. ;-) -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/ _______________________________________________ pvrusb2 mailing list [email protected] http://www.isely.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pvrusb2
