Hi guys, this is my very first post here. I got some problems with qtirreco. The application seems not to send any IR signal at all as i could see pointing the IR port to a camera. At first i thought the lircd daemon wasn't started, so i started it manually and after i entered
i could see the entry
, so the daemon is running. Also my lircd.conf file is written properly, but when i select a command with qtirreco no signal seems to be emitted. When i run
i can see the trasmitter is working. So, in your opinion, what should be the problem with Qtirreco?

Code:
ps auwx | grep lirc
Code:
/usr/sbin/lircd --device=/dev/lirc0 --listen=8765
Code:
irsend SEND_START X3 1

I have the same problem as pernacentus.
- qtirreco starts/stops lirc correctly
- qtirreco does not add confs to /etc/lircd.conf
- manual adding confs and "irsend START_SEND" works
- qtirreco still not working (no signals sending)
Is there another qtirreco related conf file we must add the remote manually?
- qtirreco starts/stops lirc correctly
- qtirreco does not add confs to /etc/lircd.conf
- manual adding confs and "irsend START_SEND" works
- qtirreco still not working (no signals sending)

Then added this line to /etc/lircd.conf:
include "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/15PF4121"
Then I added a button and tested. Didn't work but after booting software it worked. Ive noticed this before, but still hasn't figured it out why you need to boot after that operation. If youre going to add your own remote and then uploading the software, you will also need to add line to /home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/lircpaths.conf file like following line here:
15PF4121 p-r/philips/15PF4121
So in this case my remote config file is named 15PF4121.

sudo /etc/init.d/lirc restart
Check out the LIRC section of the Irreco docs for some interesting reads.

Do you mean rebooting the device? Did not help. Also, as qtirreco starts and stops lircd, there should be no need to manually restart it. I don't know what's wrong with my qtirreco, somehow it does not interact with lircd correctly. As I said, I can send commands manually to lircd and the transmitter works, but no signals from qtirreco. Is it normal that you cannot configure lirc form inside qtirreco? In irreco you could configure port an host.

HI All this is a great app.
What do we do if we can't find the TV or what ever it is that we looking for?
How do we create a brand new one?
Also do you know if this will work for WinTV USB sticks?

According to this disassembly video, it shouldn't be too hard I suppose. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVEHm325-z8
