Using lirc: receives fine, transmits wont control device

Postby segflaunt » Wed Oct 19, 2005 2:46 am

Hello, I have a USBUIRT0056US from Nov 1, 2004 and I'm having some trouble with transmit. I've programmed the remote for my Zenith C32V36 into lirc well enough to receive and understand the signals in both raw and not-raw modes, but transmittal fails in one of two ways.

Trying to send the raw codes I get
Code: Select all
irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE Zenith-raw power
irsend: transmission failed


When I send non-raw codes it just sends it and the device (my TV) politely ignores it. irsend makes my USB-UIRT blink and lircd reports no error.

Can someone help me figure out one of these problems?

*** UPDATE : Programed in my comcast Motorola DCT-22xx series cable box remote (non-raw), and lirc makes my USB-UIRT blink, but no cable box responds, same as my TV remote.

*** UPDATE #2: I've been able to teach girder about the "power" button, and successfully send it to my TV. Is there a way I can use girder's debug IR capture to make a lircd.conf? (http://www.enodev.com/girder-power-debugcapture.txt)

Here's the headers from the two lircd.conf definitions: (http://www.enodev.com/Zenith) (http://www.enodev.com/Zenith-raw)

Code: Select all
begin remote

  name  Zenith
  bits           16
  flags SPACE_ENC|CONST_LENGTH
  eps            30
  aeps          100

  header       8884  4343
  one           534  1617
  zero          534   501
  ptrail        542
  repeat       8837  2150
  pre_data_bits   16
  pre_data       0x20DF
  gap          105245
  toggle_bit      0


      begin codes
          power                    0x10EF
          ...

and here's my raw remote:
Code: Select all
begin remote

  name   Zenith
  flags RAW_CODES
  eps            30
  aeps          100

  ptrail          0
  repeat     0     0
  gap    93700

      begin raw_codes

          name power
             8700    4400     350     700     400     650
             ...
