Anyway. I downloaded all the yamaha files of lirc in my MyDocs/qtirecco/remotes directory but when I open qtirreco I can't see them. Should I do something else?
MyDocs/qtirreco/remotes
but
MyDocs/qtirreco/devices
the .conf files you are looking at in
MyDocs/qtirreco/remotes
are actually the layouts for qtirreco. just to clarify, the remotes that are on the sourceforge site should go in
MyDocs/qtirreco/devices
just make sure there is not more than one remote per file as mr_jrt pointed out.

@Cue
I have added the file to lircd.conf and made sure there are no missing quotation marks etc. But that specific remote still doesn't work at all.
I can see it and add the commands of the first remote defined in the file but they don't work. Unfortunately I don't have a way to see if anything is sent by the IR at all, but other remotes (generic Bravia TV, DVD, Reciever, etc) work fine.
Could the problem be that it is also two remotes in the file? Do I have to split that into two files?
Do you have any other suggestion?
Thanks!

I too had a lot of problems with this program but once it work its great!
A the problem y foun are all related to not having the same name of device in all the apropiate files, AND THIS INCLUDE THE DEVICE NAME IN THE DEVICE FILE ALSO!
so you have to have the file name ok in the lirc con, the remote file, the device file, AND inside the device file in the device name.
i have a remote with 2 devices and it works ok so for mi is not a problem.
Also remember you can generate new devices with lirc on linux and with winlic on windows, youll just need a cable plugged in an audio port, line in, or com port. Ive used one ir receptor from a pc tv tuner i had and it worked ok! so i can generate all the remotes i need exactly.
hope it helps

First make sure it's not QtIrreco
in xterm try
Code:
irsend SEND_ONCE RemoteName Button
EDIT: some more info. you need to start lircd before you can use irsend. The easiest way to do this is to just start qtirreco.
Then try
irsend LIST "" ""
this will list the remotes. Then do
irsend LIST remotename ""
where "remotename" is one of the listed remote name from the previous command. this will list the buttons. then
irsend SEND_ONCE remotename buttonname
will send the signal. here is an example for a samsung remote
irsend SEND_ONCE BN59-00516A POWER

and STANDBY as a button for that remote.

I noticed the header data was different from the generic Bravia remote. So I replaced it with that generic header data.
Now I have the 12bit section working.
This gives me 4 important buttons the generic remote lacks.
Thank you for all your kind help so far!
EDIT:
ALL WORKING!!!
Found working Header data for the 15bit commands in another sony Remote for a simpler Bravia Model.
Thank you for all your help Cue!!!
