Post subject:  [R5D1] Pinnacle PCTV Remote

I installed KnoppMyth R5D1 and used the old Pinnacle PCTV Remote control with serial receiver.

The label inside the remote shows this info:

Selecting option "pinnacle_systems" from the LIRC configuration tool (/usr/local/bin/lirc-reconfig.sh as user mythtv) didn't work. It took me quite some time to figure out what to do, but as many a times, the solution was very simple. This is what was changed:

    1. Replace /etc/lirc/lircd.conf and /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc (if needed reset rights with: chown mythtv:109 lircrc).
    These files can be used for the conf file:
    /usr/local/share/knoppmyth/remotes/pctv/etc/lircd.conf
    or
    /usr/share/lirc/remotes/pinnacle_systems/lircd.conf.pctv
    The lircrc is not available in the distro; change manually (see below) or google.
    2. Change setting in /etc/lirc/hardware.conf:
    - Change DRIVER="default" to DRIVER="pinsys"
    - Disable the line with MODULES by prefixing #.


This is the code in my lircrc that works with my remote:
Code:
begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Power
    config = Esc
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Mute
    config = F9
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Chan+Play
    config = Up
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Chan-Stop
    config = Down
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Vol-Rew
    config = Left
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Vol+FF
    config = Right
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 1
    config = 1 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 2
    config = 2 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 3
    config = 3 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 4
    config = 4 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 5
    config = 5 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 6
    config = 6 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 7
    config = 7 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 8
    config = 8 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 9
    config = 9 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = 0/AV
    config = 0 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Fullscreen
    config = Return
end

begin
   prog = mythtv
   button = Info
   config = I 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Preview
    config = M 
end

begin
   prog = mythtv
   button = Record
   config = D 
end

begin
    prog = mythtv
    button = Chan_Last
    config = P 
end

begin
  prog = mythtv
  button = F_TV
  repeat = 3
  config = F10 
end

begin
  prog = mythtv
  button = F_RADIO
  repeat = 3
  config = F11 
end

#MPlayer
begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = Power
   config = quit
end
         
begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = Mute
   config = mute
end

begin
    prog = mplayer
    button = Chan+Play
    config = pause
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = Chan-Stop
   config = quit
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = Vol-Rew
   config = seek -60
   repeat = 1
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = Vol+FF
   config = seek +60
   repeat = 1
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = F_RADIO
   config = volume +1
   repeat = 1
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = F_TELETEXT
   config = sub_visibility
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = F_TV
   config = volume -1
   repeat = 1
end

begin
   prog = mplayer
   button = Info
   config = osd
end


update: added buttons for volume+subtitles in mplayer
