When you start the lirc service manually do you get any errors?
lirc will complain if the lircd.conf file isn't properly formatted or if it can't find the files you've said to include - this will give you a hint as to what's gone wrong.
qtirreco itself doesn't tell you if anything has gone wrong whilst it's starting lirc.

You just need to make sure you add the same of the remotes to the /etc/lircd.conf file.
E.g. open up /etc/lircd.conf with a text editor and add the path to the file in there.

My file says:

I manually added the last two lines.

I wrote a quick post on using a text editor here, if you're not sure about that.

I don't have a lircd.conf file...i have lircpaths.conf that reside in the folder qtirreco, not Devices. In the Devices folder, i have BN59-00609A, Bn59-00634A, Bn59-00683A, BN59-00937A. And in the REMOTES folder i have BN59-00683Aa.conf and remotes.conf.

When i open up lircpaths.conf with notepad, it shows BN59-00683A s/samsung/BN59-00683A
BN59-00937A s/samsung/BN59-00937A
BN59-00634A s/samsung/BN59-00634A
BN59-00609A s/samsung/BN59-00609A

When i open up remotes.conf, it shows BN59-00683Aa.conf | current remote
BN59-00683Aa.conf | filename of remote

When i open up BN59-0683Aa.conf (which is my remote), it shows Background: color_only

You should definitely have an /etc/lircd.conf - are you looking in the right place?

You won't see /etc or lircd.conf in the file manager.
Can you go into the terminal and type

Code:

cat /etc/lircd.conf

Ok when i type that i get:
include "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/BN59-00683Aa.conf"

I actually edited that .conf file with a notepad to include just this line because i tested with 2 other lines included before and it didn't work and i read someone say that one line will work. I try it and IT STILL not work.

I think my IR signal is not working:
I type $ sudo /etc/init.d/lirc start

and it gives me "Starting lirc daemon: lircdlircd: error in configfile line 9
lircd: reading of file '/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/B59-00683Aa.conf' failed
lircd: reading of config file failed.

I don't know what to do now.

Your line in lircd.conf says:

Code:

include "/home/user/MyDocs/qtirreco/Devices/BN59-00683Aa.conf"

Does that file definitely exist?

In the Devices folder, i have BN59-00609A, Bn59-00634A, Bn59-00683A, BN59-00937A. And in the REMOTES folder i have BN59-00683Aa.conf and remotes.conf.

In this post you've said you can see "Bn59-00683A", but that's not the same as "BN59-00683Aa.conf"

The file referenced in /etc/lircd.conf file is the one that should contain the ir codes etc.

Just as a note, I've got three lines in my lircd.conf file and they work fine.

Can i please make two requests? First, romainianusa, would you please edit that post that has your entire config book in it? It's such a long, long way to scroll.

Second, could you maybe take it to private messages? I'm subscribed to this thread and it's just the two of you back and forth for some time now.

Now that that's out of the way, i'm curious what the present state of this project is, and where it's going. Is it under development?

Edit: Actually, nevermind the first bit. I don't know why i haven't put him on ignore already. Problem solved.
