Update for webcamd >= 3.0.0.1:
webcamd 3.0.0.1 now supports /dev/input/eventX (X there can be for
example 0, 8, 16 etc) and uses it exclusively for almost all tuners,
only mceusb IR-only devices now support both interfaces. So if you
don't get a /dev/lircX device node anymore and want to make lirc
use a remote with such a tuner you now need the lirc devinput driver,
if you start lircd via the rc.d script set lircd_flags and lircd_device
in rc.conf(5), like:
lircd_flags="-H devinput"
lircd_device="/dev/input/event0"
The example lircd.conf includes the devinput config file too so if
all goes well irw(1) should still work with such tuners and show
buttons pressed, and if not and the tuner's Linux driver uses the
rc.core interface you can often still add a custom keymap, only
with devinput you no longer want to use irrecord(1) but ir-keytable(1)
which is part of the multimedia/v4l-utils port. Using that tool
you can e.g. check remote events coming in on /dev/input/eventX,
ir-keytable -d /dev/input/eventX -t
list the current keytable,
ir-keytable -d /dev/input/eventX -r
or add scancodes on the fly by loading a custom keymap,
ir-keytable -d /dev/input/eventX -w keymap.txt
(on Linux this can be automated using udev, don't know if we need
something like that also...) Some (Linux-centric, so not all of
them apply) notes re ir-keytable(1) and the lirc devinput change
are also here:
