Hicham Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hello,I am trying to make a remote control to power off TV for example using flirc connected to raspberry pi to send IR signals.I used the lirc configuration files availble on the net but it does not work. Is it possible to do that? does anyone know how to configure the hardware.conf to be able to send signal through flirc. Thanks in advance Hicham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yawor Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Hi,Flirc is an IR receiver that acts as a keyboard in the system. It can't send IR signals. Also you don't need lirc for Flirc to work as a receiver, because it sends keyboard key presses to the system, not IR events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hicham Posted February 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 Thanks for your reply! so I need to get something else to send IR signal Do you have any idea of USB IR transmitter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yawor Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) I've never used one so I'm probably not the best person to ask about this :). You should look for USB IR Blaster.This one looks promising for example:http://www.irdroid.com/usb-infrared-transmitter/ Edited February 25, 2016 by yawor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
