I am using Debian with an install of Kodi and this has been working for many months without issue.
I start Kodi with:
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kodi/kodi.bin --lircdev /var/run/lirc/lircd
An IRW on the machine gives me the following when the OK button is pressed:
1c 0 KEY_ENTER linux-input-layer
1c 0 KEY_ENTER_UP linux-input-layer
The contents of /etc/lirc/lircd.conf & /etc/lirc/osmc-remote-lircd.conf have the OK button as:
KEY_OK 0x14
I tried switching KEY_OK to KEY_ENTER without success.
I have changed the batteries and can see the blue LED when I press the button. I also get a response from the OK button when I am watching a movie etc as it toggles between the menu and the video.

Hi
Do you have eventlircd on your system?
Are you using a stable of Kodi, i.e. Kodi v17?

Hi,
Yes on both counts:
Kodi:~$ apt-cache policy kodi | grep Installed
Installed: 2:17.1+dfsg1-3
Kodi:~$ which eventlircd
/usr/sbin/eventlircd
Kodi:~$ cat /etc/eventlircd.d/osmc_rf.evmap
#KEY_HOME = KEY_HOME
#KEY_INFO = KEY_INFO
#KEY_UP = KEY_UP
#KEY_DOWN = KEY_DOWN
#KEY_LEFT = KEY_LEFT
#KEY_RIGHT = KEY_RIGHT
KEY_ENTER = KEY_OK
#KEY_BACK = KEY_BACK
KEY_CONTEXT_MENU = KEY_TITLE
#KEY_PLAYPAUSE = KEY_PLAYPAUSE
#KEY_STOP = KEY_STOP
#KEY_REWIND = KEY_REWIND
#KEY_FASTFORWARD = KEY_FASTFORWARD
You don’t need the LIRC config, as that’s for the IR remote.
Some ideas:
- Check /var/run/lirc/lircd is still the correct socket, and Kodi can access it.
- Check the output on the LIRC socket to make sure eventlircd is processing it properly. I think this is done with irw.
