Xine and LIRC


Trying to get LIRC support working with Xine....

I have LIRC set up fine and my hardware is working now, but lircd won't send the commands to xine properly or something.... It sends to irexec and irmix fine, but not xine...

I'm pretty sure LIRC is NOT compiled into the Slackware packages, so I downloaded the source and compiled/installed it that way too just to make sure, but it's still not working. If I have one aterm session running "tail -f /var/log/lircd", and another one run xine, it accepts the client (<time> localhost lircd 0.7.0pre5: accepted new client on /dev/lircd), which means LIRC is compiled properly into xine.

I can get irexec to execute xine, but the problem is when I try to send commands directly to xine, such as the examples shown from "xine --keymap=lirc".

This is the ONLY nonworking part of my .lircrc file (type anon for username and hit enter):

Quote:
begin
prog = xine
button = Enter
config = Pause
repeat = 0
end
I know the "prog" property is right because that's what "xine --keymap=lirc" said, I know "button" is right because irw and lircd.conf confirm it's right, and I've tried multiple buttons here, I know "config" is right because that was is "xine --keymap=lirc" as well, and repeat is just obvious. I know the mode is set up because the SRS key kills xine fine.

This is really frustrating, does anyone have any ideas?
