Post subject:  Actisys200L and R5A15 using iwamble.net instructions

I had this working on R4V5 (or last stable).. I get errors using R5A15. I followed the instructions on www.iwamble.net. I had to remove the --tag=CC flags to get it to compile and then installed it. I used lirc-0.7.1pre4.tar.bz2. (modified the lirc2remote so it would work of course, which it did).
Whenever I try to change_channel.csh I get errors:
remote_irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE JVC_RAW 2
remote_irsend: transmission failed
remote_irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE JVC_RAW 4
remote_irsend: transmission failed
remote_irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE JVC_RAW 8
remote_irsend: transmission failed
/usr/local/bin/remote_irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE JVC_RAW SELECT
/usr/local/bin/remote_irsend: transmission failed

I am using JVC_RAW as my /etc/remoted.conf (and in channel.pl). Here is my dmesg from boot:

Here is my bootmisc.sh file:
/usr/local/sbin/lircd (added when I first started/installed lircd)

# Starting Actisys stuff
echo "Starting remoted..."
setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none
/sbin/modprobe remote_sir
/usr/local/sbin/remoted

List of my /dev directory settings, chmod 777 on all /dev/remote*

srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Apr 26 15:25 /dev/remoted
prwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Apr 26 15:02 /dev/remotem

Once again thanks in advance...

It may be related, but my regular lirc for my hauppage remote doesn't work either. I dont see any errors on any logs about this. Maybe they are related?

Post subject:  Progress Made but still problems

Here is my status so far....
After I rebooted I got the JVC_RAW (can't find remoted.conf) problem resolved.
I learned after I changed it, I had to kill remoted and then restart it.
If I run one of the remotes config files I dont get any errors at all, but
nothing happens on the box. Before I was using the JVC_RAW (raw codes,
which looks VERY different than anything I see in the remotes pre-made confi
files). (I have attached it).
The error I am getting with that is this:
transmission failed
removed client
accepted new client on /dev/remoted
too short gap: 100000

I have tried the JVC_4700, and the Dishnetwork 301 one, but again they look
completely different than the RAW codes one that was working. I tried to
change the gap to like 20000 or 6200 (seen from other config files) but they
still dont do anything.

One thing that I did in my original setup was to change my dishnetwork
receiver to address 9.

Here is an excerpt from the remoted.conf file that WAS working before the upgrade. You can see it is very different than what is in the standard lirc remotes config files.

begin remote

name JVC_RAW
flags CONST_LENGTH|RAW_CODES
eps 30
aeps 100

ptrail 0
repeat 0 0
gap 100000

begin raw_codes

name tv/video
500 6035 500 2805 500 1685
500 2805 500 1685 500 1685
500 1685 500 2805 500 2805
500 2805 500 1685 500 2805
500 2805 500 2805 500 2805
500 2805 500 2805 500 6035
500 2805 500 1685 500 2805
500 1685 500 1685 500 1685

It is now working. Really they only thing I needed to do was to increase the gap size in the remoted.conf file. Increased it from 100000 to 175000 and everything works now.
