Hello everybody!
First time ‘poster’ here…
Beg your pardon if somehow I do a mess on explaining myself…
Without adue:
I am trying to set up a remote control for this usb dvb-t dongle here:
07ca:a835 AVerMedia Technologies, Inc.
The dongle works fine for tv reception, but I cannot use its remote control inside osmc.
This is what I get if I use ir-keytable command without any arguments:
$ ir-keytable
Found /sys/class/rc/rc0/ (/dev/input/event2) with:
Driver dvb_usb_af9035, table rc-empty
Supported protocols: NEC
Enabled protocols:
Name: AVerMedia AVerTV Volar HD/PRO (A
bus: 3, vendor/product: 07ca:a835, version: 0x0203
Repeat delay = 500 ms, repeat period = 125 ms
I have been trying to use lirc but I seriously have my doubts if I am heading the right way…
I managed to get to the point of creating a configuration file which I am trying to use right now:
# Please make this file available to others
# by sending it to <lirc@bartelmus.de>
#
# this config file was automatically generated
# using lirc-0.9.0(devinput) on Sun Mar 5 18:41:10 2017

I loaded this set up from ‘MyOSMC → Remotes’ menu. (tried both with disable RC6 on and off)
So, my question is:
Am I going in the right way to set it up? Is there a guide which I could follow to make it work (I mean loading and making this configuration file work inside osmc)?
Thank you already for your attention…
Followind advice from fellow @ActionA from the #irc channel, I am updating this post with pertaining dmesg content after (un)plugging the device to its rasperry-pi b+ host:
Thanks again for any insight and for having read thus far…
