Description

There have been a lot of changes to XMBC and Linhes Lirc. I was difficult to get a hndle on what needed to be changed.

I had to the chance to completely reload my box today and all I had to do to get the remote working was to change a line in in the button here is the corrected buttom.

/usr/share/mythtv/themes/defaultmenu/library.xml

this is the correction that make the remote seamless once again.

CODE: SELECT ALL
<!- #XBMC->
<button>
<type>Menu_XBMC</type>
<text>Launch XBMC</text>
<action>EXEC /USR/bin/xbmc --lircdev /var/run/lirc/lircd</action>
</buttion>

<!- #XBMC->

XBMC will be called via /usr/LH/bin/xbmc.sh. It prevents xscreensaver from activating and launches XBMC with the parameters for LIRC.
