Re: [mythtv-users] irw problems
That did it. I created my own lircd.conf using irrecord and am good to go. Thanks again. -Al On Jul 21, 2005, at 3:36 PM, Nick wrote: On 7/21/05, Al Furman [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yes. irrecord works as expected.

At least this way you are using a config generated by your system 'as-it-is'. Record a few keys on the remote and then restart lircd with the new config. Also, when irw appears to not be working, check the status of the LIRC daemon - 'service lircd status' and make sure it reports it is OK.

irw watches /dev/lircd, which is not the same as /dev/lirc or /dev/lirc0 to have a valid /dev/lircd you need to have the daemon running.
