Hi Ralphy, I was playing with ir-keytables the other night to help out diode84 in creating/using a conf file I was a little rusty on this so was using a system with Jivelite but no touchscreen (My Lounge Player) and monitoring using ssh (sudo ir-keytable -t) Once I had got what I needed to answer the question I thought I'd tryout the power button on the remote after peterw's post. On this system the power button on the remote does indeed toggle the power on and off, this system uses a custom ir conf file (for my B119A remote). I reloaded the defualt conf file and the power still toggled (with my SB3 remote) This was odd as I've never been able to do this on my Bedroom system which has a RPi Touch Screen (With pCP 6.0 anyway, I have a memory that it may have worked on earlier versions but not sure, maybe lirc ?) This morning I took my Bedroom system and burned a new 6.0.0 RC1 (Audio) SD card, setup Jivelite and IR-Keytables and voila the power button did NOT toggle the power The screen flashes briefly but nothing else, I connected an LED to GPIO 13 and set up "Power On/Off GPIO" the LED flashed but never stays on when using the power button however quickly the button is pressed. If I use KEY_RIGHT the screen comes on and remains on, the LED remains lit (Power is On) I then removed the ribbon cable from the TS. After this the power button DOES toggle the power/screen/LED When I recconnect the TS the original behaviour comes back. Could this be related to the problem noted here ? https://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?103330-Jivelite-for-piCorePlayer&p=972816&viewfull=1#post972816 This also seems to depend on the connection of a touchscreen Jeff *Players:* SliMP3,Squeezebox3 x3,Receiver,SqueezeLite-X,PiCorePlayer x3 *Server:* LMS Version: Latest Nightly on Centos 8.0 VM on ESXi 6.5.0U3 on Dell T320 *Plugins:* AutoRescan/BBCiPlayer/PowerSave/PowerSwitchIII/Squeezecloud/Spotty/Player Groups *Remotes:* iPeng9/Orangesqueeze/PC/Jivelite/SqueezeLite-X *Music:* 522GB,1.5K albums with 25K songs by 5K artists mostly FLACs *Want a webapp ?* See http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?104305-Webapp-for-LMS ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jeff07971's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=49290 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=112112 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
