Need help - remote configure

it’s probably the EOL conversion, same issue encountered when i created the file using windows notepad, it was fixed when I created via Nano.

Thanks for your great support guys. :slight_smile:

I will try it.

I will try that as well.

At least using Notepad++ did also not work for me, should I try “Nano” too?
Is it available for Windows?

Just use nano in CE ssh terminal: https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/42980/the-beginners-guide-to-nano-the-linux-command-line-text-editor/

Take a look at this guide, it’s not difficult.

In Notepad++: Edit->EOL conversion->Unix

Alright, thanks guys!
I will test as soon as I’m home. :slight_smile:

In the meantime…
Does anybody know what the key-name for “Player Debug” is?
I like having this on a remote button to show frame drops and skips.
I was not able to find a proper match in the list…

…so I just used KEY_PLAYER for the lack of it, but I assume that is not actually Player Debug.
Does anyone know what the actual name is?

Maybe help you.

That was it! :slight_smile:

Thank you very much.
All keys work now.

There is just one more thing… The delays seem different than before.
It feels a bit laggy…
Can you tell me how to change the delays?
I looked into the old remote.conf that I used in LE (supplied by someone else) and it says the following:
work_mode = 0
repeat_enable = 1
repeat_delay = 130
repeat_period = 120
release_delay = 20

Are these the commands I need?
How do I write them in the keymap properly?

This info available in my example, try
ir-ctl -t 20000

Thank you for that!
Unfortunately, I still does not feel right.
If I want to move through a list quickly, it first lags and then the commands follow in quick succession…

Is there anything else I can do?
What exactly does your command do?
I looks to me like the old remote.conf defined three separate values.
Is that still possible?

Try this:

ir-keytable -D 700
ir-ctl -t 30000

If it works for you, insert those lines in autostart.sh

I will try, thanks!

Just like that?:

…or do they need an “echo” or anything else?
I put the line from boot2k3 in the keymap file before, was that wrong?

You need to try this command via ssh first ir-ctl -t 20000
if all is ok, than add in autostart.sh
if you want you can try different delay and repeat periods, but they work not in the same way like in remote.conf
ir-keytable -D xxx -R yyy where xxx - delay, yyy - repeat period

Thank you for the explanations! :slight_smile:

Unfortunately, Arien’s suggestion also does not feel right, so I will try to experiment with the values.

Can you tell me what the ranges for all three parameters are?
Is is documented somewhere?
Do you know what the numbers translate to? I assume there must be times in ms in there somehow?

yes, ms
Change ir-ctl values and don’t change ir-keytable values on startup and ir-keytable output will show you a default values
you can try the same as in your old config, but with small values can be false double button press.
so you can experiment with them and left best working for you.

Thanks to your help I found the sweet spot now - it took some time to find it…
It’s still not quite as responsive as in Krypton, but ok. :slight_smile:

Did I write this correctly into the autostart.sh?

ir-keytable parameters can be in one line, as in my example above

Having the commands in autostart.sh does not work for me.
One line or two lines, either way - after reboot it is always set to the standard 500/125.
I also tried formatting the autostart.sh EOL in Windows or Unix - no change.

Are you sure that is where and how to place the commands?

Is your file autostart.sh file placed in correct place? /storage/.config/autostart.sh

Oh my god, this is embarrassing… :smiley:

I actually had the autostart.sh in /userdata, not /configfiles. :sweat_smile:
So sorry - it’s working now! :slight_smile:

I think I had it confused with advancedsettings.xml…
Stupid me…

A “man” who never made a mistake never learnt anything.
