[Bug 786743] Re: Lack of support for Multiple receivers

 

At second thogt this is a mythbuntu issue, re-assigning.

Please note that that from 0.9.4 lirc no longer supports hardware.conf.
In short, each lircd instance is configured as a systemd service. There
is also a ren lirc_options.conf file which defines default values for
command line options. See upstream documentation at http://lirc.org.

Title:
  Lack of support for Multiple receivers

Status in mythbuntu-common package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lirc

  The lirc configuration file /etc/lirc/hardware.conf, /etc/init.d/lirc
  and the Mythbuntu Control Center only supports the use of a single
  receiver and a single transmitter. There are valid cases for using
  multiple receivers, for example, the Imon Knob, which only provides
  volume up, volume down and mute depending on the revision of the
  hardware, plus another IR remote. If the configuration files were able
  to support multiple receivers then Mythbuntu Control Center should be
  able to support it too.

  Currently manually editing the lirc configurations files is required
  to get multiple lirc receivers functional.
