Re: Adding an infrared remote: lirc + mic input

You just need to install lirc in the buildroot ./scripts/feeds update -a ./scripts/feeds install lirc I'm not sure about what makefile you are using, the one posted here may not be appropiate for Backfire. BTW I added an entry in the openwrt wiki, which explains the entire process http://wiki.openwr...

Re: alternatives to the WL-520gU

Those buttons are usb hid buttons for sure. To making it work you should install the USB HID kernel module, and then use an application like triggerhappy to associate buttons with commands.

Re: Adding an infrared remote: lirc + mic input

Don't use my makefile for an older version of Openwrt. Try to install lirc instead: ./scripts/feeds update -a ./scripts/feeds install lirc lirctools lircdaemonadd Then modify the makefile --with-driver="audio_alsa" Btw, I don't know if lirc-alsa works in that old Openwrt version. Good luck

Re: Adding an infrared remote: lirc + mic input

Almost every remote should work. BTW I've read the ones which uses rc5 protocol are more convenient for lircalsa.

Here is a list of working remotes with lirc:

If you don't find yours in the list, you'll can record your keys with the lirc receiver.
