Now i changed my remotes to some aureal and built lirc 0.9.0 --with-driver=atwf83 which is specially meant for this devices. Further changes are : disble the eventX from beeing used in Xorg, tell udev to symlink the appropirate device to /dev/input/irremote, copy the config from sources to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf (debian), start lirc via SysV and with -H atwf83 -d /dev/input/irremote. also i changed the remote's name in my ~/.lircrc. Unfortunately i have no function and can't use the tools to check my input because they are meant for some pulse/pause combinations and not for hid-scancodes. How may i check and correct this issue ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try New Relic Now &amp; We'll Send You this Cool Shirt New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service that delivers powerful full stack analytics.

I was abe to get ir working with the ftdi driver accessing it with lircd --driver=nameofblaster --output=/dev/lircd /etc/lircd.conf with the above and using irsend I was able to see the blaster flash. So I am getting information through LIRC and out through the actual blaster. The output in the LIRCD is hwftdi_send() carrier=38000Hz f_sample=524288Hz I see the flash... but the channel does not change on the STB. I also have a serial blaster that uses lirc_serial to work. It works fine and I am using the same lircd.conf file for both. Are there any parameters such as baud rate or anything else that I can use to make this work? The output parameter is set to 2 by default. Is that the correct one? I saw there was a different note that mentioned the use of the mplay2 driver. I tried that one but LIRCD locked up and there was no flashing on the IRBLASTER.
