Lircd-0.9.4c: Warning: Duplicate remotes "devinput" found, problems ahead After stopping and starting lircd, I get this: lircd-0.9.4c: Notice: /etc/lirc//: devinput: Multiple values for same …BTN_MOUSE This instruction set doesn't appear to be working. Removing the 0x7E825B6C codes from each of theĪbove lines and rebooting caused irw to begin showing the key values in the left column above when I pressed the correspondingĪfter I removed the right hand codes from my *.nf file it all started working nicely! That my /usr/sbin/lircd -nodaemon process was reading data from /dev/lirc0. When I recorded signals with irrecord, I got: begin codesĪfter installing this configuration file at /etc/lirc/ and rebooting, irw produced no output, though I could see using strace Please keep on pressing buttons like described above.Īnyone else using Raspbian Stretch that runs into the error: Info: Cannot configure the rc device for /dev/lirc0 try following the last comment in the bug report: Generate at least one dot but never more than ten dots of output.ĭon't stop pressing buttons until two lines of dots (2x80) have It is very important that you press many different buttons randomlyĪnd hold them down for approximately one second.

Using driver default on device /dev/lirc0 irrecord - application for recording IR-codes -Ĭhecking for ambient light creating too much disturbances. conf file and seemed to hung in irrecord after two lines of dots of button presses.Īny help on this? $ sudo irrecord -d /dev/lirc0 ~/nf But when I tried recording a panasonic aircon remote, it failed to create. I am running Raspbian Stretch with Desktop (kernel version 4.9) on a Raspberry Pi 3. I can't believe that someone (myself) dealing with RF on a day to day basis took 3 days to figure out this problem! While running cat /dev/lirc0 and moving the TSOP38328 sensor: I noticed it dropped right off as soon as I left my dark living room. I would expect to see non-unicode characters, but ONLY when I press the button! No other time, because it is NOISE! Maybe a few characters are acceptable (here and there). What really helped conclude was: cat /dev/lirc0, and seeing tons of random jibberish all across my screen for 30 seconds (and would pause for a couple seconds, then repeat). Should have been a dead giveaway, but the last and final was what really helped. "No significant noise (received 0 bytes)" is what you want IRRECORD to say anything else and YOU WILL HAVE PROBLEMS.Īnother would be dead give away: irrecord would ask for button input, then a second or two later (before I press the button) it would say that it received a signal. Once I moved it to the GOOD location in my house, it stopped reporting any sign of IR. Irrecord kept telling me that it was detecting "170 bytes" but that it was minimal noise. Mode -2 /dev/lirc0 kept saying "received 8 bytes" or "received 12 bytes", and would stop without any remote input. I'm in practical darkness (where the sporadic noise is) IR noise, even with the TSOP in a cardboard box (with a lid loosely on).
Stopped rvice and lirc.socket (systemctl stop lircd.xyz).Followed what had to say in the above noted guide.then apt-get purge lirc (no backtick of course).Some of your issues I "resolved" by jumping around the web, but this one was what solved it all for me. Raspberry Pi Zero W (doesnt matter what version, all the $ apt list lirc I might have something that someone else might find useful, that I couldn't find anywhere else on the web. I tried everything (including moving rooms, but still had problems!) Same issues here, every single one of your issues I had.
# you can test if the recorded remote works by $ sudo mv /etc/lirc/nf /etc/lirc/lircd_nf # follow the instruction prompted by the above command carefully # to record a custom remote/register a remote device
# Update the following lines in /etc/lirc/lirc_nf # Update the following line in /boot/config.txtĭtoverlay=lirc-rpi,gpio_in_pin=18,gpio_out_pin=17
# Add the following lines to /etc/lirc/nf file # Add the following lines to /etc/modules file The vendor has some documentation but that is not complete and sufficient for Raspbian Stretch.įollowing are the changes that I made to make it work. Notes to make IR shield (made by LinkSprite) work in Raspberry Pi 3 (bought from Amazon ).
