Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Do this:

apt-get remove --purge qtirreco
apt-get remove --purge lirc
cd /etc/lirc (to see if it is removed properly, This should be not exist)
cd /etc (lirc.conf should not be on the list)

remove MyDocs/qtirreco from File Browser


Reboot.

Enable Extra-Testing
--------------------------------
Install Qtirreco 3.0.1
Reboot

x-terminal: ps

you should see something like: lircd .... ... port ....
If the lircd is enabled and still no infrared signal on the camera then...

Repeat step 1 again and remove everything only this time delete the "MyDocs/qtirreco" first then open up the app again.

Then if you can't see the signal, try remove it completely.
And do it from scratch after reboot.

type: apt-get install qtirreco (with extra-testing enabled)
It should say fixing the path and stuff to lircd

Now go to the qtirreco app and download a remote and test it out.

Ok so i found a sky box remote that works, but cant get panasonic tv working, would love the xbox 360 remotes to work but they dont, when you create a new remote, you download from other remotes anyway? So how do you create new remote "codes"?

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Hi All,
Can it be tailored for a device or does it work with db's only? I wonder if I can hook it up to my laptop (tired of getting up and using keyboard every time I want to put a movie on pause)))

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Just for info: I am somehow confused (:?) but It is indeed working now. I can download remote. I haven't done anything more but tried later on yesterday late at night and it worked...
I still have to test it properly but at least I can play with the application now...

@Reeby

Just vnc into the laptop???

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Not exactly)) I know that my laptop should have a infrared port and use a remote controller like a TV set (most of them do) So, I was just wondering if I could use N900 as a remote control with this app.

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

didn't work on my xbox 360

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Hi maxximuscool,

Thank you for trying.
lirc is running, its daemon is listening on 8765, while qtirreco is running. No response, I don't have a remote list.

The only way to find the problem in my opinion is to have a debug mode and launch the app from the terminal.

By the way, I have tried irreco a month ago and it worked fine. Makes me wonder if that's a qt bug .... But why am I the only one?

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

Wait. The 360 has an IR port?

Re: QtIrreco for N900
 

It has with an IR remote so it should have.
