(I inadvertantly put this in the Linux Mythtv Forum first, but moved it here as being more appropriate.)

I built the home brew IR receiver and connected it to Com1 on the PC. I clean installed R5C7 and selected RCA 6 in 1 remote, which I don't have but mine wasn't listed. I then got the correct lircd.conf for my remote (apex) from the lirc.org site and copied it over the one for the RCA 6 in 1 in /etc. and rebooted.

Myth didn't respond to any remote commands so I opened a terminal and typed
Code:
mode2 -m

pressing buttons on the remote fills the screen with numbers. I cntrl-C out of mode2 and try mythtv again but it still doesn't respond to the remote commands!

now I type
Code:
lircd --nodaemon

I then open a second terminal window and type
Code:
irw
and press buttons on the remote. The irw window responds with
Code:
root@mythtv:/home/mythtv# irw
0000000002fd7887 00 Vol- Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fd7887 01 Vol- Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fd58a7 00 Vol+ Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fd58a7 01 Vol+ Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fdda25 00 Menu Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fdda25 01 Menu Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fdda25 00 Menu Apex_K12K-C5
0000000002fd50af 00 Enter Apex_K12K-C5
for the appropriate buttons pressed. The lircd window displays:
Code:
root@mythtv:/home/mythtv# lircd --nodaemon
lircd-0.8.0pre4-pvr150[4486]: lircd(all) ready
lircd-0.8.0pre4-pvr150[4486]: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
I Cntrl-C out of the "irw" window and then the "lircd" window displays
Code:
lircd-0.8.0pre4-pvr150[4486]: removed client

and then I Cntrl-C out of the "lircd" window.

Here is a part of the lircrc file in /home/mythtv/.mythtv
Code:
begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Enter
    config = Enter
end


begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Menu
    config = M
end
So you can see that the button names match.

I'm not sure what to do next. It seems like the hardware is working fine but Mythtv just isn't seeing or responding to the remote! What might be the next step in trouble shooting?
Thanks.

No, I moved it there as this has nothing to do with installing KnoppMyth. This thread ends here.
