Thanks for the link. I did indeed follow those directions. The difference <br>
between the MCE and non MCE remotes is that the non MCE has the ir blaster <br>
connected to the card with a little mono plug jack, whereas the MCE has the <br>
blaster connected to the USB IR receiver. The other thing is that the driver <br>
that you need to compile lirc with is mceusb2 rather than the stock prv150. <br>
Other than that it should not be to different. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
How did you get the firmware to load, the one from marks blog? In my startup <br>
file it still shows the default firmware. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks. <br>
<br>
<br>

How do you know that the firmware is not loading? I initially had the
same problem when setting it up. I would use irsend and the command would
run without error, but there were no signals or blinking lights coming from the
blaster. I tracked it down to the firmware not being loaded. What
is the output of "grep lirc /var/log/messages"? Mine now looks
like this: <br>
