I think I've tracked down the problem to the IVTV's firmware files. It looks like with the new version (0.10), they take larger firmware files for encoding and decoding. Since my PVR-350 sisn't recognize, lirc wasn't going to work either

create all the devices just fine. if you don't have an ati_remote<br>then maybe something els is loading before lirc and preventing it from<br>making the correct devices.<br><br>On 2/15/07, Nick Morrott <<a href="mailto:knowledgejunkie@gmail.com">

<br>> The actual LIRC devices (/dev/lircd and /dev/lirc0 if using Fedora)<br>> are still not present. What type of IR receiver are you using? You<br>> likely need to load the LIRC driver (either lirc_i2c for Hauppauge
<br>> cards or lirc_serial for serial IR receivers).<br>><br>> > 4) Do you have a lirc.rules file in /etc/udev/rules.d?<br>> ><br>> > Here it is:<br>> > KERNEL=="lirc[0-9]*", NAME="lirc%n"
<br>> > KERNEL=="lirc0", SYMLINK="lirc"<br>><br>> Looks good. Should create /dev/lirc symlink to /dev/lirc0 when the<br>> correct LIRC module is loaded.<br>><br>> What's the output of
<br>><br>> # lsmod |grep "lirc"<br>><br>> after you've loaded the correct LIRC module? You generally modprobe<br>> the specific LIRC driver for your receiver which in turn pulls in<br>> lirc_dev automatically.
