Hey,
I have a MythTV box running FC5, and have had all kinds of problems
with phantom keypresses with my remote control when using lirc and
linux input layer drivers. For example, press 'up' 3 times, then
'down' once, and lirc picks out the 'down' as an 'up', despite having
set up the remote properly with irrecord.
So, because the remote is effectively just a keyboard and works as
such, (for example with LIRC off, the number buttons work as numbers
in all apps, and the direction pad works as up/down/left/right arrow
keys), and its listed as an input device in /dev/input, how can I
skip using lirc all together in order to:
1) work out what button is sending what keystroke
2) give the non-standard keystrokes a name, and therefore set up new
bindings in MythTV
MythTV has a nice keybinding interface, but all the arbitrary buttons
(like play, rewind etc) come back as "invalid command", so I'm
guessing that I need to somehow assign the keystrokes a name in order
for them to work?
The MythTV side of things isn't a problem, its picking out all the
'extra' key presses from the remote and making them do something
useful that I need help with!
Thanks in advance,
Ben
