[LINUX] Asus Pundit P4-P5N9300 Media Center Remote Control and LIRC? - MP3HiFi - 2009-03-28 21:34
Hi together,
I bought an Asus Pundit with Onboard Nvidia 9300. XBMC is running quite well. Included is a remote that is called CIR.
In Ubuntu with lshal I figured out, that it is the following device.
udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pnp_ITE8713'
info.parent = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer' (string)
info.product = 'PnP Device (ITE8713)' (string)
info.subsystem = 'pnp' (string)
info.udi = '/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/pnp_ITE8713' (string)
linux.hotplug_type = 2 (0x2) (int)
linux.subsystem = 'pnp' (string)
linux.sysfs_path = '/sys/devices/pnp0/00:09' (string)
pnp.id = 'ITE8713' (string)
Does anybody know how to integrate it with LIRC.
Thanks
Martin
A request.... - SpearFish - 2009-04-07 17:58
Hi MP3...
I really do not have any answers to your questions.
However, you seem to at least have the initial setup to be able to solve one of my questions.
I wonder if there are any chances that you could remove the front panel of your P4-P5N9300 unit and photograph each angel of it.
Also, I am not getting any clear answers from Asus Website, about the eventual output possibillity for S-VHS. Can you answer if the unit comes "out of the box" with S-VHS output capabillity or not?
Appreciate your kind help,
SpearFish

Hi Spearfish, concerning to the photos I must say sorry. There is no VHS or SVHS output. Only VGA and HDMI.

It's not supported by Lirc
according to comp.hardware.lirc message list it has IT8720F IR-receiver.More info:

I hope it is supported in future. I have read the post and it seems there is somebody testing it.
If I would be familar with programming in Linux and especially Lirc in combination with hardware programming I would try to make a new driver for Lirc, but it seems to be a hard challenge to archieve that goal.

I got this barebone as well. Any news regarding lirc support?
- nemo81 - 2009-07-16 16:00
Soo, is there any news on this?
I have absolutely no clue as to how to set this up myself.
I got the Pundit today, got everything working but it would be nice if the buildt in IR would work aswell..
(im probably gonna get a Logitech DiNovo Mini, and i will have to deal with that when that time comes, but for now id like the remote to work
)Thanks for any feedback!

I bought a P4-P5N9300 and I can make lirc working
you have to use lirc-0.8.6pre1.tar.bz2 and choose IT87 device
but now the problem - the remote is a mceusb like (for lircd.conf) and it works with irw or even irexec or irxevent
but it does not work with XBMC
I copied Lircmap.xml and remote.xml in good place (log file told me these files are loaded) but nothing works
my specs:
gentoo x86 kernel 2.6.29-r5
XBMC SVN rev 21875
- darkattraction - 2009-07-27 21:13
Today I fixed 2 problems
- lirc: on gentoo, lirc creates a socket /var/run/lirc/lircd (irw read it too) and xbmc tries to read /dev/lircd socket
so I added in /etc/conf.d/lirc the option "-o /dev/lircd"
and I created a symlink /var/run/lirc/lircd to /dev/lircd as to check my remote with irw
- sound over hdmi: that worked but I can't fade music track (can't open audio device - dmix problem) and the solution is here http://www.xbmc.org/forum/showpost.php?p=259485&postcount=41
so if you want to use a pundit... go go and go
EDIT: my remote is an harmony 785
