sin, mr_jrt and casketizer
you need to add the file to
Code:
/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/
but you must also edit
Code:
/etc/lircd.conf
to include a line for your added remote. eg
Code:
include "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/BN59-00516A"
make sure it matches the filename exactly including case.

I used your wget command on my N900 and don't know where are the files

they are most likely in the directory you issued the wget command in,
most likely your home folder.

/home/user/sourceforge.net/remotes/Remotemake

something like that.

Found it in my /root/lirc.sourceforge.net

hmm.. adding 302 lines only for sony remotes would take time too. There should be an option to choose remotes from a file already in N900..

Ok, I rebooted my N900 and now qtirrec doesn't work. Using my N95's camera, I can see no IR is being sent. I uninstalled the package, then reinstalled it, but it still does nothing.

It worked fine before the reboot. Any ideas?

Edit:

if I run:
Code:
echo "test" > /dev/lirc0
I get my ir flashing, so that side fo things is working, which suggests the problem lies with lircd.

This has happened to quite a few people here. Did you try

#apt-get remove --purge qtirreco
#apt-get clean

This will remove everything. Then try to install it again.
If this doesn't work try searching this thread for the other possible solutions.

I was backing up my config before trying this when I noticed I'd missed a quotation mark off my manual device file. Adding that and everything started working fine.

Errors in the config file really needs to be reported to the user rather than silently failing!

...and of course, I wouldn't have needed to if qtirreco supported multiple remotes per file, as per RM-ED006

I want a remote for a YAMAHA DVXS301 5.1-channel Digital CinemaStation Home Theatre System

the 2 yamaha remotes from qtirreco doesn't work
How can I use the remotes in http://lirc.sourceforge.net/remotes/yamaha/ ?
I mean, where should I place these files in order qtirreco will be able to use?

Thanks in advance.

hmm. sorry for my previous ignorant post. I guess that the files on http://lirc.sourceforge.net are not written in the same format of these qtirreco uses. I read the files conf files of MyDocs/qtirreco/Remotes/ directory and they differ with those of lirc.sourceforge... So probably I cannot use the files of lirc.sourceforge

you can, or at least you should be able to. How exactly did it differ?
