Thanks for the replies. It seems I was given bad information.
Apparently those ioctl's refer to LIRC_SETUP_START and LIRC_SETUP_END,
so it appears not a libftdi problem afterall. However, maybe this is
a good place to ask about the problem I'm having.
To be specific, I have tried both an FTDI MM232R module, and
TTL-232R-5V usb cable (with the FTDI chip in the usb connector), both
with the same results. I'm able to create a lircd.conf using
irrecord, however it uses raw mode/codes with:
Found const length: 93384
RC-5 remote control found.
No header found.
No lead pulse found.
No repeat header found.
Unknown encoding found.
The strange thing is when I use a homebrew serial ir receiver, the
same remote gives the following from irrecord:
Found const length: 107989
Space/pulse encoded remote control found.
Signal length is 67.
Found possible header: 9095 4404
Found trail pulse: 655
Found repeat code: 9095 2155
Signals are space encoded.
Signal length is 32
Why would these have different results if it's the same remote control
being used? Both the FTDI-based and homebrew serial ir are using the
TSOP1738. The serial one uses a voltage regulator, but I didn't see
this in the FTDI usb schematic at Albert's page.
Could this be caused by a bad baud rate, or maybe bit-banging related?
I'm close to ripping my hair out trying to get the FTDI usb ir
receiver working. Greatly appreciate any help/suggestions!
Cheers,
Derek
