I am using CoreELEC on my Odroid C2 and control it with my TV remote control via CEC. Sometimes I am experiencing that some keystrokes from my remote control are received twice which is really annoying especially when typing text on the screen keyboard.
The remote control I use can be used for many TVs, DVD Players and similar so I assume that the Odroids internal IR receiver is picking up the signals too from time to time executing the keystrokes twice.
To solve this I would like to deactivate the receiver.
I was checking the lircd.conf manual and some similar documents I could find online but I could not find any hint on how to disable it or at least stop the system from “using” the received signals.
Can anyone help me with that?
I think you can “disable” it by adding pointing meson-ir to use a remote file that you do not have in /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg
meson-ir * dummy_remote
You can find a list of all the remotes available from this directory /usr/lib/udev/rc_keymaps
You will also need to add a line to /storage/.config/rc_maps.cfg if you are not already using a custom rc_maps to use the correct file for your other driver
LibreELEC has an option for disabling the LIRC daemon, however no such option is available in the CE addon (Services) - I would like to see such an option in the CE addon too.
