LIRC¶

lircd -Hftdi -dserial=A400fsTS,input=7

kill existing lircd process if necessary¶

mode2 -Hftdi -dserial=A400fsTS

Idle gives some noise, pushing buttons gives an explosion of lines¶

close with ctrl + c¶

sudo emacs -nw /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

REMOTE=FTDI FT232-based IR Receiver
REMOTE_MODULES=
REMOTE_DRIVER=ftdi
REMOTE_DEVICE=
REMOTE_SOCKET=/var/run/lirc/lircd

REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=-d serial=A400fsTS,baud=2400 /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/el_cheapo_kodi_remote.lircd.conf

sudo emacs -nw /etc/lirc/lirc_options.conf

Generate a new config¶

mode2 -m > testing-testing.lircd.conf

irrecord ITRemote${date +%Y%m%dT%H%M%S%Z}

Stumped, cannot decode the remote...

IR-KEYMAP¶

I won't bother...

Cannot find any toggle mask.
But I know for sure that RC6 has a toggle bit!

or

cannot decode the button presses

or sometimes, too much noise to begin with
