lirc
like in this guide:sudo apt-get install lirc && sudo apt-get install lirc-x
. If something went wrong through configuration, reconfigure it withsudo dpkg-reconfigure lirc
- Add a Lirc > XBMC mapping file (to map Lirc/IR/remote buttons to XBMC buttons)
sudo touch .xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml
- Search up the XBMC Buttons
- Search up the Lircd Button conf file:
cat /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
. In there you will find oneinclude
that points to example to/usr/share/lirc/remotes/asus/lircd/conf.asusdh
. Justcat
the contents. Thename
for each remote in that file will be thedevice
in theLircmap.xml
file for XBMC. Example: `sudo nano .xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml:
<lircmap>
<remote device="AsusDH">
<left>REV</left>
<right>KEY_FORWARD</right>
</remote>
</lircmap>
