w0000000t!!!1!!1oneone

this is a happy day - I've been trying to find a way to get mine working under lirc for some time now.
granted, my generally lacking linux/lirc aptitude has been the largest contributing inhibitor in regards to this endeavor, but either way...

w00t!

now me and the guys can start developing a linux release of our audit software =p

unknown author - you rock...pretty damn hard.

Error 'too long RAW transmission' to Dish sat receiver

Has anyone gotten this to transmit to a Dish receiver @56Khz? Here's my info:

-running Ubuntu 6.10
-lirc 0.8.1
-USB-UIRT connected to /dev/ttyUSB0
-ftdi_sio module is loaded
-lircd.conf for Dish receiver. Relevant section:

...
name dish
bits 16
flags SPACE_ENC|NO_HEAD_REP
eps 30
aeps 100

header 400 6100
one 400 1700
zero 400 2800
ptrail 400
gap 6200
min_repeat 4
toggle_bit 0
frequency 56000

begin codes
...
-receiving works, irw displays correct output

-transmitting fails. lircd outputs following:

#lircd -n /etc/lirc/lircd.conf
lircd: lircd(usb_uirt_raw) ready
\lircd: accepted new client on /dev/lircd
lircd: uirt2_raw: checksum error
lircd: uirt2_raw: UIRT version 0905 ok
lircd: uirt2_raw: UIRT version 0905
lircd: uirt2_raw: too long RAW transmission 171 > 48
lircd: uirt2_send: remote not supported
lircd: error processing command: SEND_ONCE dish up
lircd: transmission failed
lircd: removed client


Can anyone help?

I don't know much about Lirc, but it appears that the Lirc/USB-UIRT support code is not correct on the maximum number of raw bytes allowed:

"lircd: uirt2_raw: too long RAW transmission 171 > 48"

The UIRT2 could only handle about 48 bytes, while the USB-UIRT can handle about 188.
