I have a Raspberry Pi 3b+ RetroPi gaming box with a RetroFlag NESPi+
case that I use for retro gaming, and had the bright idea to set it up
as a 'Now Playing' screen on my TV for a little bit of extra visual
pizazz (and easy song identification from across the room) while I'm not
using RetroPi (which is most of the time).

So I've set up a fresh SD with PCP, disabled SqueezePlay, and installed
Jivelite so that it just syncs with the existing SB3 in my loungeroom.
Nice.
(FWIW I also got the power buttons working on the NESPi+ case, as
documented here:

I thought I'd plug in my now deprecated OSMC USB remote
(https://osmc.tv/store/product/osmc-remote-control/ although I have the
version with seek buttons down the bottom instead of volume) so I could
control playback and navigate menus.
Now, while some remote buttons work (navigation, ok, home), a lot of
them aren't mapped to the expected (or any) function in Jivelite (in
particular play/pause). So I thought I'd tale a stab at getting lirc to
fix this.

First up I found a lirc config file for the OSMC remote
(https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/new-osmc...olved/11630/11), which I then
modified (as attached 27117) to map to the functions I
want in Jivelite.

In PCP I went to beta mode, Tweaks, and installed lirc. I loaded my
modified lircd.conf for the OSMC remote onto a USB drive, and hit the
'custom' button, and it said it successfully copied it over.
In the lirc settings section, I set 'Set IR Device to GPIO or USB' to
the recommended 'hidraw1' and rebooted, but the remote buttons remain
unchanged (they still work as before I tried lirc). Thinking maybe it
was just the wrong number, I tried hidraw0 through hidraw9 witha reboot
each time I changed it, but none worked with the new mappings.

Is there something I've missed?

Your help is greatly appreciated, thanks.
