Some note. Misterhouse send command over USB-UIRT only if I launch MH and
after this TryDrv. In this case all working. Perhaps MH do not initialize
something properly for Linux.

Have you tried different repeat values?  That code appears to repeat once 
already, so try setting it to 1.

Hi, David!
I've double checking my Pronto code and copy/paste into learning web
interface.
I tried sending code from learning web with repeat count from 1 to 5 without
some response from AV.

Also I've tried install MH on Debian with kernel 2.6.18 and 2.6.24 with same
result.
Any idea ?

That pronto code has an extra copy of the signal, which might be confusing 
my software.  Try this code:

I've tried sending your code and also code learned with trydrv in raw format
without some response from AV.
Also I've tried to send code from usb-uirt to PDA (some remote software) but
without some response from program. Code from original remote was recognized
quick. But this is not trusty experiment.

Hi Gregory

I don't know if this will help you at all. But, when I was troubleshooting
my Lirc stuff a really handy tip I came across was to use the view finder in
a digital camera to see if there are IR pulses coming from the device. The
camera lets you see the IR. That'll at least tell you if the hardware is
even sending anything at all.

FWIW...

Garry

If the trydrv program doesn't work either, it sounds like the usb-uirt is 
bad.  Another possibility is a problem with the usb port or the built-in usb 
to serial converter.  The dtr line must be manipulated in order to transmit. 
One user couldn't get the usb-uirt working on a linksys nslu2 because of 
this I think.

Do you have another windows machine you can test trydrv or lrnhelper on?

Re: [mh] USB-UIRT transmit trouble

From: Gregory Sh <gregorysh@gm...> - 2008-03-30 22:31

I can do learn and send codes from iox (some IR redirect software) installed
on same kubuntu. Lirc also can send and receive. Working not good, but is
alive, and misterhouse also can receive and decode signal.
I have windows installed on second disk on same box and tydrv can send and
receive codes. usb flash-disk also working.
Look like all is ok. Maybe I wrong. I really need other box do you mind? 

Regards,
Greg

I use VIA chipset based comp for Linux. Second comp have Intel-based
motherboard I've using for testing usbuirt under windows. I've plugged Linux
disk to this comp and launch Kubuntu 7.10 with generic kernel.  Transmitting
not working. Usb-uirt of course connected direct to computer.

I'm at a loss.  I'm running on Ubuntu Gutsy without problems.  I haven't 
heard of a problem like this before, except for the linksys nslu2 problem I 
mentioned.  On windows, we use the same DLL as trydrv and lrnhelper.

Re: [mh] USB-UIRT transmit trouble

From: Gregory Sh <gregorysh@gm...> - 2008-04-03 20:04

SOLVED.   I've found Linux version of TryDrv and it also do sending anything.
Learninig only. This sound stupidly but problem is mouse connected to USB.
I've reconnected mouse to pc2 port. After this manipulation TryDrv and
Misterhouse can send code. My box is Kubuntu 7.10 custom kernel 2.6.24.3

Thanks

Greg.

Some note. Misterhouse send command over USB-UIRT only if I launch MH and
after this TryDrv. In this case all working. Perhaps MH do not initialize
something properly for Linux.

This could be caused by your ioctl problem.
