Post subject: | Vizio XVT Universal Remote configured for Linhes |
Vizio packages a universal remote with their XVT LCD VIA TVs that can be configured to control a mythtv box by infrared. Requirements: IR Receiver on mythbox - I have an mceusb remote/receiver On the television: 1. VIA>HDTVSettings>TV Settings>Input Source:Mythtv>Device Setup Select DVR, Media Center PC 2. VIA>HDTV Settings>TV Settings>Input Source:Mythtv>Audio>Audio Control Select External 3. VIA>HDTV Settings>TV Settings>Input Source:Mythtv>Audio>Advanced Audio>Device Setup Select Receiver, Logitech On the computer: 1. Edit your /etc/lircd.conf to contain the following two lines Code: include "/usr/MythVantage/templates/remotes/mceusb/lircd.conf.mceusb" include "/usr/MythVantage/templates/remotes/Logitech/lircd.conf.logitech-receiver" 2. Save the following lircd.conf file to /usr/MythVantage/templates/remotes/Logitech/lircd.conf.logitech-receiver Code: # # this config file was adapted from the configuration for a logitech z5500 remote # # contributed by rsay # # brand: Logitech # model no. of remote control: Vizio XVT Remote set to Audio Receiver Logitech # devices being controlled by this remote: Logitech Digital speaker system # begin remote name logitech_receiver bits 16 flags SPACE_ENC|CONST_LENGTH eps 30 aeps 100 header 9002 4535 one 566 1689 zero 566 561 ptrail 559 repeat 9002 2279 pre_data_bits 16 pre_data 0x10EF gap 108301 toggle_bit 0 begin codes VolumeUp 0x58A7 VolumeDown 0x708F Mute 0x6897 end codes end remote 3. Add/change the following line in your /etc/lircrc Code: include "/usr/MythVantage/templates/remotes/mceusb/lircrc-mceusb" 4. restart lircd Code: /etc/rc.d/lircd restart
5. Exit the frontend and restart the frontend The only downside is that the cool slideout keyboard doesn't work. I tried several profiles on the tv, but I couldn't get any of them to send out IR codes from the keyboard. Ill edit the post if I find a better way to access all the keys. Edit: I spoke with Vizio technical support and they said that the keyboard does not have IR capability, it only works via RF. |
