Issues with Logitech Harmony
Hi all
Last item on my XBMC to do list: getting my Harmony 700 to work with XBMC. I tried a few tutorials (such as this one) and alas nothing. -Here is what I use: -Harmony 700 Remote -Raspberry PI B -Nwazet IR Receiver (link) -Xbian (latest) Now the IR receiver is supposed to work with the unit as it's listed on their page & comments, but not getting anything through.. In peripherals the IR receiver is listed as "CEC Adapter / Product ID 1001 / Vendor 2708 / Class cec / Version LibCEC 2.1.3 - firmware v1" so XMBC sees it - now how to get both devices talking? My Harmony is set up as a Windows Media Center. Let me know if you need any details. Please advise - thanks! My bad - should have posted this in Remotes and CEC support Moved |

RE: Issues with Logitech Harmony
I assume you have done a basic google search "xbian logitech harmony"
If after following the guide it is still not working can you: 1) Confirm taht lirc is running. 2) Post the output of dmesg and xbmc.log Beta 2 should recognise this remote. Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

RE: Issues with Logitech Harmony
Ok - According to dmesg your ONLY peripherals are a Dell keyboard and a Microsoft Optical Mouse.
I have a feeling your issue might be because this is a GPIO and not a USB IR reciever. Can you try: Terminal sudo lsmod sudo modprobe lirc_rpi sudo lsmod And then try your remote. Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

RE: Issues with Logitech Harmony
Ok - We're getting somewhere - lirc_rpi needs to be loaded.
Can you try: Terminal sudo modprobe lirc_rpi sudo kill $(pidof lircd) sudo mod2 -d /dev/lirc0 And try various buttons. Hopefully you should see some output. Then try : Terminal sudo mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio sudo modprobe lirc_rpi debug=1 sudo cat /proc/interrupts Send output and dmesg. If not, then I am at a loss. It looks like that functionality was not built into the Xbian kernel. Can you borrow an USB LIRC receiver and see if that works.

If it's not in the kernel I'll have to go back to RaspBMC but that was a bad experience - reboot every 10 mins. Thanks! |

RE: Issues with Logitech Harmony
Try again but with mode2 - my typo.
The GPIO has been recognised Code: [ 3594.710208] lirc_rpi lirc_rpi.0: lirc_dev: driver lirc_rpi registered at minor = 0 Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.

RE: Issues with Logitech Harmony
Well that shows it's "Working".
I still need the output from: sudo mount -t debugfs debugfs /sys/kernel/debug and sudo cat /sys/kernel/debug/gpio and sudo modprobe lirc_rpi debug=1 and then sudo cat /proc/interrupts Then reboot; sudo stop xbmc sudo modprobe lirc_rpi sudo start xbmc If that doesn't work, then that's my "lot" used up.

Still nothing. Weird. Would it be possible that the current build has a piece missing from the drivers used by the IR receiver? Odds not but thought I'd ask. - (30th Nov, 2013 10:34 PM)jphebert Wrote:(30th Nov, 2013 08:47 PM)IriDium Wrote: Well that shows it's "Working". Me thinks we've beaten up this critter plenty - time to move to plan B. Do you have a suggested USB IR receiver which will be nice enough looking for a living room I can put onto my Pi which will work out of the box (or as close as you can)? The IR receiver is really nice as it fits in the case but providing lots of heartburn. Many thanks! |

RE: Issues with Logitech Harmony
I think it is just "listening" on the wrong device.
Try sudo killall lircd; /usr/local/sbin/lircd --driver=default --device=/dev/lirc0 If nothing, restart xbmc. If still nothing - then that's all I know. You could have a look at LIRC_RPI You need to add lirc_rpi to modules and create a Lircd.conf file Please read before you post How to post a log file If you liked my help, click on "Thanks" to show your appreciation.
