Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
just curious & might not help at all :

have you tried qtirreco for another device and it works?
when youre using the available remote for samsung, does your n900 ir transmitter actually transmit anything? (i usually tests it using another camera looking at the ir transmitter while pressing the remote button)

i ask these because sometimes after downloading to many remotes, qtirreco stops working even for remote that was previously working right

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
On my last n900 qtirreco ran like a charm but now i cant get qtirreco to work with my new one.

At first i installed irrecowidget and it worked fine, and then i installed qtirreco but qtirreco didnt send anything.
Then i installed tvbgone and now only tvbgone is working fine but neither irecowidget or qtireco is working...

Whats wrong here?

Did you check /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/ ? There should be some files like BN59-00603A (depending on your remote name).

Try Terminal command
Code:

ls -1 "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/"
Then, these files need to be included in /etc/lircd.conf .
Every device on a single line like
include "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/BN59-00538A"

Check in Terminal if they are:
Code:

more /etc/lircd.conf
If not, you can add them all at once with the following bash-commands. You need to be root for this. And type the command "bash" before!
Code:

for device in `ls -1 "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/"` ; do echo $device ; `grep -q $device /etc/lircd.conf` ; if [ $? -gt 0 ] ; then echo "adding $device to /etc/lircd.conf ..." ; echo "include \"/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/$device\"" >> /etc/lircd.conf ; else echo "Device $device already there" ; fi ; done
There might be other problems with your qtirreco installation, but without these include lines it wont work anyway.

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
I'm using a lenovo t43 laptop which has a built in Infrared device.
I tried to use the recorder to read remote codes but couldn't succeed.
I use windows 7.
the command i use is:
IRRecord.exe -d serialdevice.dll ../config.cfg
and the output i get is:

Press RETURN now to start recording.
IRRecord.exe: no data for 10 secs, aborting
IRRecord.exe: gap not found, can't continue

and this is when i try to press the remotes buttons when it is aimed to the IR port.
i know the IR port of the laptop is working fine since i am able to sync a palm pilot using IR with it.

Anyone got this working?

When trying to access the remote database to download a remote, I get a "Error 3: http request failed." -message.
Has the server been shut down?

Hope not, but the database is here if you want to get remotes manually

You need to download one of those files that match your tv so for example TV2. You right click/hold-click on that file and "save link as"

then follow this post

That is a method of adding a remote manually, a workaround to get the remote without connecting to the database qtirreco uses. It doesn't solve the problem of adding a remote from the database which I assume is "error 3"?

bump


does anyone know how i can preload the database into my phone? that would make my life easier.

that would be great.

Anyone knows how to solve the "HTTP request failed" = Error: 3?

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
I have exactly the same problem. Error 3. I can't find anything on google to fix this. I recently flashed my phone and reinstalled kp49 and cssu. May be it has some thing to do with kp49. What kernel do you have so that we can know if this is a kernel related problem. I really nedd this app to work again.

I'm using the kp49.
But first, I uninstall the kp49, use the native kernel, try to use the app and it showed the same error. So, I reinstall the kp49.
By the way, I didn't flashed my phone. I just uninstall and reinstall the kernel!

Cue 2011-11-20 20:22

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
This has nothing to do with kp49 or CSSU the error is there for EVERYBODY. There is nothing wrong with anybody's device or Qtirreco installation, the server which hosts the remotes is just no longer reachable. The server has either been taken down or moved. The server location I think is hardcoded into Qtirreco, I couldn't find any documentation on the server or if it's possible to host our own or make it local to the N900.

Cue, the Irreco Widget has a "advanced settings" where you can change some data like a "baseUrl = http://mercury.wipsl.com/irwi/" and etc.

Do you know how to set this data to get access to a valid database?

Tks.

Hi rrivello

I spent some free time looking at this today. I couldn't find any information on what the database should look like. None of the internet cache services had archived the site for me to mirror either. Tomorrow I might just drop the creator of Qtirreco an email to try and either get the original database up again (if s/he doesn't know) or ask to mirror it somewhere else (if permitted).

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
anyway to just transfer the datas to a new server and update qtirreco to download there instead?

i've been trying everything to create a remote manually but the remotes i created isn't working...

Tofe 2011-11-26 08:35

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
One of the problems is that it seems quite hard to find a copy/backup of the database irreco is using. It was built using Lirc data (I think) but it uses different format.
A big question is: why doesn't irreco directly use Lirc database format ? That way it could use the lirc website ressources directly...

plz can someone help me with a command line which i could use in unistalling qtirreco and all its components ( files, configs,everything concerning qtirreco) so i could start afresh as if i am installing the application for the first time. thx

bingomion 2011-11-27 21:01

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 
reinstalling wont help.
Most likely your application is installed correctly.
The problem is connecting to the database server were the remote config's are, it's down and not responding.
