I've have just transitioned from a Windows install to XBMCbuntu (upgraded to the latest Kodi release). The biggest problem I have come across is that my remote seems to be completely nonfunctional. There is no response in Kodi and no commands are recognised in irw. The transceiver LED is on and another LED flashes with each IR command sent but there is just seemingly no recognition from the OS or Kodi. I'm at a loss for what to do next. The remote is set up as MCE keyboard from my previous XBMC install on Windows (it is actually a Harmony One).

Further info: ir-keytable -t does not detect any remote keypresses either. The receiver is recognised in lsusb (Bus 003 Device 003: ID 0471:060c Philips (or NXP) Consumer Infrared Transceiver (HP)) and ir-keytable returns:

Code:

Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event3) with:
    Driver mceusb, table rc-rc6-mce

Try
$ sudo -s
# echo rc-6 > /sys/class/rc/rc0/protocols
# ir-keytable
(this should highlight [RC-6] as the enabled protocol
# systemctl stop lirc
(make sure lircd is not running before testing again with...)
# ir-keytable -t
(press remote keys...)
