LIRC Transmisison fails... - gregstah - 7th Mar, 2014 09:56 PM

Hi there,

I'm trying to get LIRC to transmit rather than receive from XBIAN. Basically I want to write a basic flask page that allows me to turn the TV on or off from my phone using two IR LED's

I have a working transceiver that I've wired to a female 26 pin connector, I know it's working because I've managed to get receive and transmit running using a Raspbian install.

I want to use Xbian since if there is a pi sitting there then why not get it to do other stuff :-)

LIRC on my Xbian install seems to be receiving:
When I stop the LIRC service and run:

Code:

mode2 -d /dev/lirc0

I get the pulse readouts when pressing the remote.

Where I'm stuck is getting it to transmit, I have the following in my

Code:

/etc/modules

file

Code:

lirc_rpi gpio_out_pin=17

This is exactly the same in the working Raspbian install.

The error I get is:

Code:

irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE Samsung Power

irsend: transmission failed

Any ideas as to how to get around this?

Thank you!

G

This is a seldom used function, it may be a while before someone can help.
