OSMC Media Center
Résumé
La Raspberry pi est idéal pour se construire un media center personnel, par exemple en couple avec un NAS.
IR Remote control
IR remotes generally emit in a wavelength around 940nm, so we need a IR sensor. It's invisible to the eye but cameras (such as smartphones) can see a dim purple light.
Setup
- MyOSMC > Pi Config > Hardware Support
- Note GPIO pins
- we need gpio_in_pin
- Plug the IR sensor accordingly (see below)
- Vin on 3.3V or 5V
- GND on RPi GND
- OUT on gpio_in_pin (18 on mine in 12/2017)
- MyOSMC > Remotes
- Active appropriate script according to your remote
- If no script exists, clone a script and edit it or create one with irrecord command
irrecord
Log into a shell : EXIT » Esc. key (default user/pass : osmc/osmc)
Stop lircd service
sudo systemctl stop lircd_helper@lirc0
Launch irrecord specifying correct device (here /dev/lirc0)
irrecord -d /dev/lirc0 /home/osmc/lircd.conf
Reboot lircd service
sudo systemctl start lircd_helper@lirc0
Script will ask to press certain buttons. Full list can be found here (2017)
