That makes sense. The remote/ USB receiver is from a PVR-150MCE kit. I
use lirc_mceusb2 and from what I understand I can use one instance for
both RX/TX, is that correct?
I'm not sure of the mode I'm using, but this is the command I use to
record: irrecord DENON_RC-1048
======================
Version: lirc-0.8.2-66_cvs20070301.fc6.at
======================
# ls -l /dev/lirc*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 Mar 13 20:38 /dev/lirc -> lirc0
crw------- 1 root root 61, 0 Mar 13 20:38 /dev/lirc0
srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 Mar 13 21:17 /dev/lircd
======================
When I do something like this: irsend --device=/dev/lircd SEND_START
DENON_RC-1048 MUTE
I get nothing on the Denon Receiver, but if I start irw and move the USB
receiver over near the flashing red LED it picks up the signals and
spews them back to the command window. I have even tried using a
universal OneForAll remote on the Denon receiver and it will mute and
shutoff the Denon receiver but when I try to use the irrecord codes from
that remote through the USB receiver it too doesn't work.
======================

Here are 2 sample conf files that I generated within minutes of each
other using the same remote control and only inches away from the USB
receiver.
