I have installed the CIR drivers, but the NUC refuses to recognize any presses in the remote button.

I am using the Xbox 360 Media Remote (Black):

It does not work in xbmc; or in windows.
+1 Been looking for the answer to that as well.

Have i5 nuc, and works better with OFF, that is strange.

Which xbmc are you using ? Windows ? Openelec ?


On my own using openelec and using only vaapi acceleration that is made for Intel gpu like HD graphics we have on our nuc.

With this, h264 video are well displayed without stuttering and with only 2 or 3 % of CPU.

I have windows 7

If I disable it, it works very well and smooth.

Some versions of OpenELEC are broken when VAAPI is turned on.

I need to investigate it some more but a nightly build from about 3 weeks ago worked ok.

Good to know, because for the moment I'm using this nightly build OpenELEC-Generic.x86_64-devel-20140227163029-r17824-g82c0036 on my NUC i D54250WYK,

I guess from 27 feb. Is that version is OK ? Because I watched 2 movies perfectly and some videos through a french TV Add on and seems good (and better than Frodo) with VAAPI enabled.

where can I download the older versions?
The version of 9 february worked great for me.

For me r17780 is the last working release using livetv and hardware acceleration.

You can get it here http://snapshots.openelec.tv/

Can anyone else confirm its broken in recent releases? It seems fine on videos, just not Live TV


RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Nafi - 2014-03-06

how do you see whether it is working or not?


RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - zag - 2014-03-06

I get blocks and a green screen on livetv


RE: Intel NUC - HTPC (Haswell Late 2013 edition) - Jorgensen - 2014-03-06

Feel a bit stupid being hundredth person to ask how to get a Harmony Remote 650 to work with the I3 NUC.

EDIT
HW: Intel Haswell NUC I3
Remote: Logitech Harmony
OS: Ubuntu Server 13:10.
/EDIT

I have created a autostart.sh located in ~/.config/.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
modprobe -r nuvoton-cir
echo "auto" > "/sys/bus/acpi/devices/NTN0530:00/physical_node/resources"
modprobe nuvoton-cir

When checking the permissions this is the output:
Code:
xbmc@xbmc:~$ ls -l .config/autostart.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 xbmc xbmc 128 Mar  6 00:27 .config/autostart.sh

But it doesn't work. From the /var/log/syslog I found this:
Code:
Mar  6 20:12:06 xbmc kernel: [    3.812674] nuvoton-cir 00:08: IR PNP Port not valid!

So what is going wrongHuh

I know the script is working. If I ssh into the NUC and manually execute
Code:
cd ~/.config/
sudo ./autostart.sh
the remote is working perfectly.

Finally, the remote always work when I want to power the NUC ON. It only after every reboot I have to run the autostart script MANUALLY!!!! Otherwise no remote in xbmc.

ah ok.

My livetv setup(Nuc D34010) works fine on latest openelec nightly with vaapi enabled.
