If I understood the issue correctly, Alex (the OP) has problems
because the USB receiver gives BOTH kb events and makes a lirc device,
and the KB events are not wanted and cause problems. I'd look in
/dev/input to see which event device is the one for the KB side of the
receiver and disable it; perhaps via Xorg.conf (I'd assume this is
somehow possible). That would be a general solution for all software,
including those that don't have an option for disabling keyboaard.But,
as already stated by Jukka, vdr-sxfe already has one... but then maybe
we didnt understand the issue correctly =)
Thanks all for the replies.
I'll try both --nokbd and spcifying which input should be used for keyboard in xorg.conf as soon as I'll get home.
To sum the replies, looks like I have to use --lirc option for vdr-sxfe and --lirc=/dev/null with vdr.
2 more issue I still have to resolve:
- repetition problem for the keys, pressing "1" might produce "111". Will probably have to play with some options in lircd.conf.
- Key sequences configuration, play button is mapped to something like "CTRL, SHIFT, P", how do I configure vdr-sxfe to understand the whole sequence as a single button?
