Hi all, I'd really like to keep base64 to a bare minimum in my
mail-store, but then along comes monstrosities like the attached. Trying
to run mhfixmsg on it just removes the entire body of the mail.
I just tried running the nmh-1.7-RC2 version, but result is same.
I'm not holding my breath, but maybe the attachment could provide a
test-case ...

Hi All,
I’m happily running mythbuntu 16.04.2 and have had lircd
working with devinput to receive my MCE IR remote control input quite happily.
lsusb shows the device as:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0471:060c Philips (or NXP) Consumer Infrared Transceiver
(HP)
For ages I’ve been wanting to play with the transmit side of
the mceusb device but all my attempts to use irsend(1) fail with:
root@spug:~# irsend -d /dev/lircd SET_TRANSMITTERS 0
irsend: command failed: SET_TRANSMITTERS 0
irsend: hardware does not support sending
root@spug:~# irsend -d /dev/lircd SET_TRANSMITTERS 1
irsend: command failed: SET_TRANSMITTERS 1
irsend: hardware does not support sending
root@spug:~# irsend -d /dev/lircd SET_TRANSMITTERS 2
irsend: command failed: SET_TRANSMITTERS 2
irsend: hardware does not support sending
root@spug:~# irsend SEND_ONCE "devinput" "MENU"
irsend: command failed: SEND_ONCE devinput MENU
irsend: hardware does not support sending
I can see that various lircd and mceusb kernel modules are loaded but I’m at a
bit of a loss as to how to get IR transmission working:
root@spug:~# lsmod|egrep '(lirc|mce)'
ir_lirc_codec 16384 0
lirc_dev 20480 1 ir_lirc_codec
ir_mce_kbd_decoder 16384 0
rc_rc6_mce 16384 0
mceusb 28672 0
rc_core 28672 14
ir_sharp_decoder,ir_xmp_decoder,lirc_dev,ir_lirc_codec,ir_rc5_decoder,ir_nec_decoder,ir_sony_decoder,mceusb,ir_mce_kbd_decoder,ir_jvc_decoder,ir_rc6_decoder,ir_sanyo_decoder,rc_rc6_mce
The kernel does recognise the device and notices when the IR transmitter is
plugged in:
root@spug:~# dmesg|grep mce
[ 0.016824] mce: CPU supports 6 MCE banks
[ 13.332036] Registered IR keymap rc-rc6-mce
[ 13.338220] input: MCE IR Keyboard/Mouse (mceusb) as

[ 13.343049] rc rc0: lirc_dev: driver ir-lirc-codec (mceusb) registered at
minor = 0
[ 13.548043] mceusb 2-2:1.0: Registered BB+ Dongle(e.d) with mce emulator

active)
[ 13.548084] usbcore: registered new interface driver mceusb
I have read that the devinput lircd driver doesn’t support transmission but I
can’t seem to find the appropriate one to use for the mceusb device:
root@spug:~# lircd --driver=help
Driver `help' not supported.

Ideally, I’d like to learn how to manually run the appropriate lircd command
from the command-line, specify all the needed options and get it working with
irsend independent of the mythbuntu startup scripts.
Any help or advice hugely appreciated!
Cheers,
Doug
