Will LIRC work if I use a USB-to-Serial Adapter (BAFO BF-810) and then attach the serial port IR receiver to the RS-232 end of the adapter ? Thanx Kiran -----Original Message----- From: lir...@li...

Subject: Pinnacle PCTV USB - Poor signal recognition Hi, There are my problems: - My receiver receives very rarely the signal from the remote. - If it does, the signal is often repeating endlessly. In irrecord, for example, the programm asks me for enter a new button and as soon my remote gets "in contact" with my receiver, it will send a signal from the last button i pushed. To give an example: Button "three" is already occupied by button "two" before i got the chance to push button "three". What I've done so far: 0. Installed em28xx (the newest from mercury-tree) (video for linux) and did "modprobe em28xx". 1. Install lirc 0.8 / 0.8.1pre1 with "configure = --with-driver=3Ddevinput" 2. I did "modprobe ir-kbd-ic2" which comes with my kernel (?). 3. I tried the irrecord-command (see above) with little/no success. 4. I tried different lircd.conf files: - One from www.lirc.org/remotes/ (lircd.pctv.conf) another from http://linux.bytesex.org/v4l2/faq.html#ir (linux-input-layer-lircd.conf). The signal recognition kept poor. 5. "irw" shows little to nothing. My question: Did anyone succeed. with my TV-Card? What steps did you take? I've completely no idea, what could be wrong... My System: - SuSE 10.1 (and Windows XP (for this system it works...)) - My /var/log/lircd.conf: ------------------------------------ ...
