The script seems to be working for me now with ivtv-0.4.0 (without patching the i2c). Go figure. Maybe I just had to reboot before testing the script. This was a great write up. Thanks everyone!

all right,
So i went and setup another box for a friend last night with the newest release of knoppmyth (r522) everything installed just perfect, and thank you Cecil for includeing the send_power_new scripts and such in the install (im happy it made it in)
The blaster is working perfect, the remote on the other hand has been flaky... it is not being reconized out of the box, seems to not like me anymore, so here i am, trying to get this remote reconized, so far i am retracing my steps from the walkthrough, skipping the lirc (pvr 150 edition of marks) and the ivtv steps, and still nothing, even IRW is not picking up on anything.
im tapped out for ideas... anyone?

alright, to answer myself - i shut the system down, unplugged the power, hit the power button (yes with it unplugged) to discharge any power left in the system - plugged it back in, and powered it on, and shes working again. Weird.
k jumped the gun there, there still seems to be a problem. rebooting it brings it back to the non-working state.
any ideas?

Went back to 0.3.8 as 0.4.0 was causing problems. Got this in /var/log/messages:
Nov 3 23:23:59 tuse lirc_dev: IR Remote Control driver registered, at major 61

The i2c.patch did not apply cleanly to 0.4.0 as two hunks failed. Any others with the same problem? Running Linux 2.6.12-gentoo-r9.
Have others got 0.4.0 to work?

you dont need to patch 0.4.0, this patch only applys to 0.3.9 and under (doen to 0.3.6 if i remember right), 0.4.0 is already prepatch (this patch went in to production then) ...
Thanks... and yes, i have this working right out of the box with r5a22 (0.4.0)

It almost works for me but...
I can change channels on my cable box with ./chan_change.sh channel_i_want
Remote does work in MythTv.
But when I try to change channels in Watching TV , channels change in MyThTV but IrBlaster doesn't any signal to my cable box.
I did add the command /usr/local/bin/chan_change.sh in external command in backend.
Any idea?

I had a problem with this too. Try this...
Take a look at your chan_change.sh script. It should look like this if you copied and pasted from this guide:
Quote: #!/bin/sh
REMOTE_NAME=blaster
for digit in $(echo $1 | sed -e 's/./& /g'); do
/usr/local/bin/irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit
sleep 0.4 # note, you may have to tweak the interdigit delay up a bit, depending on your DISH receiver model
done See the line: Quote: /usr/local/bin/irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit My irsend was not located in Quote: /usr/local/bin . Do a Code: locate irsend | less and see where it lives. Mine was in Quote: /usr/bin . If this is the case, just change that line of code in chan_change.sh to: Code: /usr/bin/irsend SEND_ONCE $REMOTE_NAME $digit . OR if that's not it... When you were testing the remote using irw it should have spewed out some info on screen about the buttons you were pushing. Something to the effect of: Quote: Hauppague_350
a_bunch_of_hex_code NAME_OF_BUTTON_YOU_PRESSED The name of that remote is what your after, in this case Hauppague_350. Open up your lircd.conf file and either delete or comment out (with #) all the Hauppague remotes that are not yours. Here's my lircd.conf file for you to see. Hope this helped.

Ok now, it's totally freak.
Signals are sent to my cable box but not good ones.
example :
I try "2" on my remote, it displays 2 on the screen, but 552 is sent to my cable box.
I try "1", signal sent is 732
I try "6" , signal sent is 832
When I try the script in the command line.
chan_change.sh 2 , only 2 is sent to my cable box.
It works at expected.
so what's my problem doc?

What did you do in order to make it "freak." I need more info. I'm assuming you did not copy my lircd.conf file and try to use it. The reason I posted it is so you could see what was in it. My "blaster" section is likely to be different from yours. Can you please post your lircd.conf file?

What did I do? I've modified the chan_changed.sh script as you told me, irsend was not in /usr/local/bin but /usr/bin. After that I commented out remotes that are not mine , called mythfilldatabase , reboot . That's it!
No I didn't use your lirc.conf file. I 've modified mine.
This is my lirc.conf

end remote in mythbackend-setup, external command is : Code: /usr/bin/local/chan_change.sh
(when I try this syntax in command line it does work)..
Is there any way to see what fronend send to the script when I'm using the remote?

My one box is all encompassing, so I'm not familiar with seperate frontend-backend configurations. If anyone who is familiar with this please feel free to chime in. Just to be thorough, when you tested your remote with irw it did indicate that your remote was recognized as a Hauppague_350? I'm at a loss at the moment as to what the issue is. What I discribed to you earlier worked on my 5A22. Maybe try to delete the other remotes instead of commenting them out? Save your current lircd.conf file under a different name before you go editing. _________________ Mike

I don't have separate frontend and backend.
I was just wondering whether I could use the mythtv frontend in a window and see what happens in a shell (what command it sends).
I tried to check, "use frontend in a window" but it 's still fullscreen.
My remote does work perfectly in MythTv , also in Xine and mplayer.
when I try irw, I can see the receiver respond.
example : press 2
I see :
Code: 0000000000001782 00 2 Hauppauge_350
[/code]

I have modified the script to log what parameters are sent.
I pressed "4", and in the log says:
67250.
so just to be sure, I started irw in the same time and I only see this
Quote: 0000000000001784 00 4 Hauppauge_350
I'm afraid I'm too newbie in linux to try to solve this problem.
Gurus help is welcome .

A new issue has creeped up. I change tv provided and the cable unit that i have received is a Scientific Atlanta Explorer 2000. The send_power_new script does not seem capable of controlling this STB. Any suggestions?
