Post subject:  Custom LIRC.conf
I've got what will probably be a stupid question. I've been looking through the forums trying to find out if it's possible to set LIRC up to jump to a specific section of Mythtv, lets say Weather, from where ever I am in Mythtv. I'm using a Pronto to control it so I can make my own button and use what ever IR code I want this could also work for anyone else how wants to reprogam those three little buttons on the bottom of Haupauge's remote, but then what do I put into my lirc.conf file. Has anybody tried this, or know of a thread where they address this. Once again I'm sorry for the stupid question especially if someone else has already asked this one and some has answered it. Sometimes I'm not very good at searching.

The way I did it was to create a jump point for the desired plugin in MythWeb. Then modified lircrc file to use jump point.

/home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc
Code:
begin
#Jumppoint for Program Guide created in Mythweb
    prog = mythtv
    button = TV
    config = !
end

begin
#Jumppoint for DVD playback created in Mythweb
    prog = mythtv
    button = DVD
    config = @
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
#Jumppoint for MythWeater created in Mythweb
    button = WEB
    config = #
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
#Jumppoint for MythVideo created in Mythweb
    button = BOOK
    config = $
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
#Jumppoint for MythWeater created in Mythweb
    button = HAND
    config = %
end

Sweet sounds like this will work, but when I want it to go to say TV on the Keyboard I'd press !, but how do I assign a IR code to that? so that I don't have to have the keyboard around. Or Maybe I am missing some common sense right under my nose. Thank you so much for your help

You are slightly confused ;)

in lircd.conf spalVl has a button called TV. Lircrc maps the button TV to a keyboard press or ! when in mythtv. In the jump points section of mythweb you can assign ! to live tv

Hope that makes it clearer

If you need to make a new lircd with different codes look up how to use irrecord.
