Ok, that was it, I had the old firmware. Now it works with the patch. I
can now see that the afateck driver does not use the HID
interface/endpoint (1/83) at all, but vendor specific bulk endpoint (0/81).
The fact that manufacturers have started to more more use the usb vendor
class instead of the HID class is probably partly a consequence of HID
specification being poorly designed. Oh, well. More work for driver writers.
Anyway, I'm still of the opinion that the ir-to-code translate should be
per remote controller not per tv-stick (ideally loaded by kernel from
the userspace table, and easily modifiable by userspace program).
All in all the remote controller stack is IMHO a real mess: different
level translates (in kernel and in user space), different user program
interfaces (keyboard with or without the special keys (many programs
recognize only the standard keyboard keys), lircd direct, lircd/dcop).
Really easiest is to modify kernel to get what you want. For average
user the task of getting remote to do what they want is close to mission
impossible. Hope someone would do something about this.

and compiled it. Everything works fine including the tv-stick and the
remote. However I get:

Yes, I saw this quite recently too. For me it appears when it is booted
up with the stick in. It's still to be fixed.
I suspect you are using old firmware, 4.65.0.0 probably, that does not
support remote polling and thus this 255 errors seen.
