Description

I use an Imon-pad. And lirc 0.8.5-CVS-pvr150 does not reliably support the pad (arrow buttons). I uninstalled lirc that came with linhes and installed 0.8.6 by source and it worked out of the box. please note that I think the remote definition file may be different from previous versions.

jams,
here are the lircd.conf and lircrc files for each iMon type. Most of the iMon receivers use the iMon protocol and some later receivers can be switch between iMon and RC6. The iMon receiver in the Antec Fusion Black uses RC6 only. There is a 95% ability to predict which uses which based on the usb id. But usually as long as you know what remote came with the receiver you should be ok.

The files with the suffix "imon" use the actual iMon protocol. Any iMon remote will do. I use a Harmony to emulate an RM200.
Most of the Veris iMon receivers use this protocol.

The files with the suffix "RC6" use the RC6 protocol. On my other Harmony I emulate an RC6 based MCE remote.

The iMon driver now uses a 64 bit value as of 0.8.6 so these files are not backward compatible.

At some point we should converge all of the lircd.conf files to use what is emerging as the standard definition. Then we could offer an effectively standard lircrc and grab the lircd.conf files directly from lirc.org.

Odd. The bug tracker only accepted two files. Here are the iMon ones...
