Yes, I'm developing it for now with one colleague. Soon there will be new release with new menu ja pannable lists since they started working along with the new OS update and with Qt 4.5.3 libs.

It sounds like that might be your problem.
On my system:
Devices/:
CME sumvision.conf vistron.conf

Remotes/:
remotes.conf TV.conf

In the Devices folder the files should be something like:

Code:

begin remote

  name  sumvision.conf
  flags RAW_CODES|CONST_LENGTH
  eps            30
  aeps          100

  gap          107633

      begin raw_codes

          name Power
            9000    4450    600    500    650    500
              600    500    600    550    600    500
              600    500    650    500    600    500
etc...

The Remotes folder should have something like:

Code:

Background: default
Image: default

button: Power
fileNameUnPressed: /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/.themes/modern/buttons/power/unpressed.png
fileNamePressed: /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/.themes/modern/buttons/power/pressed.png
etc...

It sounds like you've taken a copy of the remote file and told lirc that it's a device file. The two are NOT the same thing. Remotes files have configuration settings for a remote. Devices have ir codes.

Sorry again all - shutting up now! ;)

Hi There All,
Now I may sound a bit of a noob (thats probably because I am)

But i have installed this app and couldn't get it working with my SKY+ box .... i watched the instructional video on you tube on how to set up the remote but it still didnt work as i dont think i selected the right remote control file when setting up.
The device i want to control is a UK SKY+ box made by Amstrad so i tried the 'SKY+_DVB-S' but it didnt seem to work?
This is my remote http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.203-5707.aspx
can anyone help me?

Thanks

Thanks

Ok, i uninstall and reinstall fresh and STILL NOT WORK!! I figure that the IR is not working. Someone mention that the lirc must start for IR to work?? But how do i know that it is starting.

You can check it typing ps in X Terminal. You should see this line there:

/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --listen=8765

Seems like you don't have lirc installed. Type apt-get update and then apt-get install lirc in X terminal.

When type apt-get install lirc i get:
Reading package lists...done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information...Done
lirc is already the newest version.
lirc set to manually installed.

So I do have lirc installed and i do see the lirc file in program manager. I just don't know why it's not starting.
