Linux Remote control problem
#1
Hello together,

currently i have a problem with my remote control and don`t get the puzzle together. I run a XBMC live installation and my remote is not working at all. 
I have installed and configured lirc and get a response from irw.

This looks like:

0000000080010067 00 KEY_UP imon
0000000080010067 00 KEY_UP imon
000000008001006c 00 KEY_DOWN imon
000000008001006a 00 KEY_RIGHT imon
0000000080010069 00 KEY_LEFT imon
000000008001006c 00 KEY_DOWN imon
000000008001001c 00 KEY_ENTER imon
0000000080010001 00 KEY_ESC imon
00000000800100cf 00 KEY_PLAY imon

I have changed the Lircmap.xml like this:

<lircmap>
<remote device="imon">
<power>Power</power> <!-- Power off -->
<obc1>KEY_EXIT</obc1> <!-- Shutdown Menu -->
<record>KEY_RECORD</record> <!-- Screendump -->
<play>KEY_PLAY</play> <!-- Play -->
<reverse>KEY_REWIND</reverse> <!-- Rewind -->
<forward>KEY_FASTFORWARD</forward> <!-- Fast forward -->
<pause>KEY_PAUSE</pause> <!-- Pause -->
<stop>KEY_STOP</stop> <!-- Stop -->
<skipplus>KEY_NEXT</skipplus> <!-- Skip Next -->
<skipminus>KEY_PREVIOUS</skipminus> <!-- Skip Prev -->


and placed the Lircmap.xml in the folders:

/usr/share/xbmc/System/
~/.xbmc/userdata/

I seems that XBMC don't get any input from my remote. Where is the mistake in my configuation?

Thank you for answers in advanced
Ingo

Its a good thing IRW works.
If you have placed lircd.conf Lircmap.xml and remote.xml in the correct places
Its almost a certainty that the problem is Lircmap.xml.

Post the complete file.
One tiny mistake renders it unusable.
Just to keep it simple remove all those comments from the actual file

Hello FishOil,

you are absolutely right. One bracket in my Lircmap.xml is missing here:

<three>KEY_3/three>

Now it work as it shut.

THANK YOU VERRY MUCH :-)
