pidvbip + IR remote

Added by Robin Blackstone almost 10 years ago

First of all, a big thank you to Dave Chapman for writing this little program.

I have been trying to build a Raspberry Pi set top box to watch UK DVB (freeview). The program is running smoothly, but I am now trying to control it via an IR remote.

I have LIRC setup but having difficulty sending commands to pidvbip, anyone have any suggestions?

Many thanks

Robin

Yeah it is a great program, be warned though it does have a few bugs! I don't know whether it supports LIRC but I do know it works fine with a hid remote. See here on how to add your own keycodes https://github.com/linuxstb/pidvbip/blob/master/input.c
