DViCO FusionHDTV DVB-T Dual USB Tuner Card remote control LIRC config

The remote for the DViCO Dual USB Tuner appears as part of the USB interface. It looks like this in syslog:

input: IR-receiver inside an USB DVB receiver as /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb1/1-4/input/input6

First grab the remote control config file and tack this section onto /usr/share/lirc/remotes/dvico/lircd.conf.fusionHDTV:

end remote

Then in /home/user/.lirc/mythtv (where 'user' is the system user that runs the frontend) put your config for what you want each button to do in mythtv, here are some examples (the whole file is too big to include here):

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mythtv
button = fastforward
config = >
repeat = 0
delay = 0
end
begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mythtv
button = rewind
config = <
repeat = 0
delay = 0
end

In my setup I have a symlink:

/home/user/.mythtv/lircrc -> ../.lirc/mythtv

Lirc-aware applications look in your ~/.lircrc, which will look something like this:

include ~/.lirc/mythtv
include ~/.lirc/mplayer
include ~/.lirc/xine
include ~/.lirc/vlc
include ~/.lirc/xmame
include ~/.lirc/xmess
include ~/.lirc/totem
include ~/.lirc/elisa

I needed to do a fair bit of work to my ~/.lirc/mplayer, so I have included it here. A full list of mplayer commands is available here:

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = playpause
config = pause
repeat = 0
delay = 0
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = back 
config = quit
repeat = 0
delay = 0
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = stop
config = quit
repeat = 0
delay = 0
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = ff
config = seek +30 
repeat = 3 
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = rew 
config = seek -30 
repeat =3 
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = right 
config = seek +30 
repeat = 3 
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = left 
config = seek -30 
repeat =3 
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = up 
config = speed_incr +.1 
repeat = 3
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = down 
config = speed_incr -.1 
repeat = 3
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = ok 
config = speed_set 1
repeat = 0
end


begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = volup 
config = audio_delay +.1 
repeat = 3
end

begin
remote = DViCO_Dual_Digital
prog = mplayer
button = voldown 
config = audio_delay -.1 
repeat = 3
end

Configure /etc/lirc/hardware.conf. The important parts are:

REMOTE="DViCO_Dual_Digital"
REMOTE_MODULES=""
REMOTE_DRIVER="devinput"
REMOTE_DEVICE="/dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.7-event-ir"
REMOTE_LIRCD_CONF="dvico/lircd.conf.fusionHDTV"
REMOTE_LIRCD_ARGS=""

Restart lirc (I found you often need to restart it twice), and you should be good to go. You don't need to restart mythfrontend. The original instructions also have some good troubleshooting tips.
