Yeah, that could be very nice add-on and it will be there in future I just can't exactly say when I start to do it, just now the summer is so hot and nice, so I had to enjoy it but soon Ok, so there is no IR sended from device? It should be, so please, if you have time do this small test and send the result here: Go to xterm and change to root (you need to have rootsh to do this) Now start the LIRC daemon, in xterm type: /etc/init.d/lirc start (This should give message Starting lirc daemon: lircd.) If Ok, we will list the remotes available, type: irsend "" "" list you should see list of remotes in use, like NikonDSLR, CANON-RC1/RC5 etc. If Ok, test the remotes, so select the remote you need and type: irsend send_start <remote> <command*> *) Commands: Canon: S, Nikon: shutter, Olympus: capture, Pentax: Capture (remember the caps!) If Ok, take the camera and look trough live view, do you get the continuous blinks from ir sensor (you can also test do the camera take photos in this way or not). If you don't get that IR signal in this point, the problem is in LIRC or in IR sensor. Ok, now just to stop the signal: irsend send_stop <remote> <command> and close the daemon: /etc/init.d/lirc stop (you get message about stopping it) you can return to user mode (type exit) If you get any error messages during the test, send them here (or PM to me). If the IR works like it should, the problem is in code, so run this in xterm (as an user) python /opt/pykake/pykake.py and if you get any error messages to terminal (you should if the upper LIRC test works correctly), send them to me (here or PM). Thanks for your time
