Lirc and emulationstation - kgoerbig - 15th Feb, 2014 11:36 AM
I installed emulationstation from source onto my xbian setup. I'm trying to figure out a way to launch emulationstation from the command prompt with only a streamzap remote.
I already have the streamzap remote and lirc functional along with irexec. I edited /etc/lirc/lircrc to map two of my buttons, one to stop xbmc, and another to start xbmc. That part works fine (launching and stopping xbmc with irexec/lirc). I want to use the same method with lirc/irexec to start/stop emulationstation. Is this possible?
Here is is my /etc/lirc/lircrc:
Code:
# Example with modes
# MAIN BEGIN (irexec mode) - Application Selection Mode
# ---------------
begin irexec
BEGIN
prog = irexec
remote = Streamzap_PC_Remote
button = GREEN
config = service xbmc start
END
BEGIN
prog = irexec
remote = Streamzap_PC_Remote
button = RED
config = service xbmc stop
END
BEGIN
prog = irexec
remote = Streamzap_PC_Remote
button = BLUE
config = emulationstation
END
BEGIN
prog = irexec
remote = Streamzap_PC_Remote
button = YELLOW
config = killall -9 emulationstation
END
BEGIN
prog = irexec
remote = Streamzap_PC_Remote
button = POWER
config = /usr/bin/navixsearch
END
end irexec
