IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 20th Feb, 2013 02:12 AM

I have an IR remote of GBS, but it isn't recognized. (This one: http://www.donberg.ie/pics/m/made4you_ki1-1.jpg )
Google doesn't help.

What could I do?

Code:
root@xbian:/home/xbian# /etc/init.d/lirc stop
[ ok ] Stopping remote control daemon(s): LIRC:.
root@xbian:/home/xbian# mode2
mode2: could not get file information for /dev/lirc0
mode2: default_init(): No such file or directory
root@xbian:/home/xbian#

Thank You

Can you try this tutorial? http://wiki.xbian.org/view/Tutorials:Configuring_a_remote

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 20th Feb, 2013 05:35 AM

Thanks for replying.

I tried to configure using that tutorial, but I failed at the first step.
I copied the code up (first post).

Please move the posts to github as our forum rules state. Also, can you just post relevant parts. I don't have to see all your failures in typing commands and stuff.

And can you also post the output as described here: http://forum.xbian.org/thread-414-post-4192.html#pid4192

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 20th Feb, 2013 10:38 AM

Sorry!
All the lines are like this:

Code:
02:00:46 T:2950104128   DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << Recorder 1 (1) -> TV (0): POLL
02:00:46 T:2950104128   DEBUG: CecLogMessage - << 10

So no lines like OnKey?

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 20th Feb, 2013 08:45 PM

No...

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - CurlyMo - 20th Feb, 2013 08:51 PM

That's wierd because i believe this remove presents itself as a keyboard instead of a remote.
Code:
[    3.277227] hid-generic 0003:16C0:0596.0002: hiddev0,hidraw1: USB HID v1.01 Device [Gbs Elettronica MadeForYou Programmer] on usb-bcm2708_usb-1.3.4/input0
Did you enable debug mode in xbmc while catching the log?

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 21st Feb, 2013 01:52 AM

Yes...

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - CurlyMo - 21st Feb, 2013 02:00 AM

And if you disable CEC, can you then post a full XBMC log (with debug enabled) and while pressing buttons, on pastebin?

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 21st Feb, 2013 02:28 AM

You mean disable CEC on tv?
Well, my tv is a bit old and hasn't CEC, so I'm trying to control Xbian with an exclusive IR receptor and remote.....

Is it possible?

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - CurlyMo - 21st Feb, 2013 02:31 AM

Disable cec from within XBMC so it doesn't get polluted with CEC messages.

RE: IR remote usb not recognized - JackLondon - 21st Feb, 2013 02:47 AM

from where?
It's only connected to:

-DVI Monitor (for configuring only, It will be connected to a Tv trough Rca)
-Mouse
-IR receptor
-Ethernet to router
