irrecord -  application for recording IR-codes for usage with lirc

Copyright (C) 1998,1999 Christoph Bartelmus(lirc@bartelmus.de)

This program will record the signals from your remote control

and create a config file for lircd.

A proper config file for lircd is maybe the most vital part of this

package, so you should invest some time to create a working config

file. Although I put a good deal of effort in this program it is often

not possible to automatically recognize all features of a remote

control. Often short-comings of the receiver hardware make it nearly

impossible. If you have problems to create a config file READ THE

DOCUMENTATION at https://sf.net/p/lirc-remotes/wiki

If there already is a remote control of the same brand available at

http://sf.net/p/lirc-remotes you might want to try using such a

remote as a template. The config files already contains all

parameters of the protocol used by remotes of a certain brand and

knowing these parameters makes the job of this program much

easier. There are also template files for the most common protocols

available. Templates can be downloaded using irdb-get(1). You use a

template file by providing the path of the file as a command line

parameter.

Please take the time to finish the file as described in

https://sourceforge.net/p/lirc-remotes/wiki/Checklist/ an send it

to  <lirc@bartelmus.de> so it can be made available to others.

Press RETURN to continue.

Checking for ambient light  creating too much disturbances.

Please don't press any buttons, just wait a few seconds...

No significant noise (received 0 bytes)

Enter name of remote (only ascii, no spaces) :hifi

Using hifi.lircd.conf as output filename

Now start pressing buttons on your remote control.

It is very important that you press many different buttons randomly

and hold them down for approximately one second. Each button should

generate at least one dot but never more than ten dots of output.

Don't stop pressing buttons until two lines of dots (2x80) have

been generated.

Press RETURN now to start recording.
