FAQ
IR led is working but QtIrreco doesn't send any signal?

First thing to check is if lirc is running by typing ps in terminal.You should see this line:

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

Then check the file under /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Remotes/<remotename.conf> for whats the device in line:

command: <device> <command<

Then check if that device actually is the same under /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/<device>. There check the line after begin remote:

name <device>

Then under /etc/lircd.conf you should have proper device path included.

If those devices in lines match and lirc runs the IR signal should be sent. Some codes doesn't work but still the signal is emitted.
#I ran as root, but not needed.
cd /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices

#dowload remote file here, eg:
wget http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/ei/TV90 .

exit console,

Or you can download your remote on windows and copy and past it into N900:\qtirreco\Devices

start QtIrreco
create new remote
Edit remote
new button
click add on the right
from the left, select your new remote, eg TV90 and from the right, select your command, eg mute
ok
Move button, etc, repeat, new button etc.
click save remote.
the rest is as normal.

Thank me for holding your hand!!
