Configure IR Remote for ODROID C1

Allgemein 
  1. sed -i 's/debug_enable\ =\ 0/debug_enable\ =\ 1/' /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  2. odroid_remote /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  3. tail -f /var/log/kern.log
  4. Now press the buttons on your IR remote. You will get an error code which changes in the first letters. The last four letters are the factory code.
  5. Replace the ZZZZ in the following with the four letters command and execute the command. 
    sed -i 's/factory_code.*/factory_code\ =\ 0xZZZZ0001/' /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  6. odroid_remote /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  7. tail -f /var/log/kern.log
  8. The custom error code will be replaced by „scancode is ...., invalid key is 0x....„
  9. The LAST two letters of the „scancode“ are the needed keycodes. Enter it under key_begin and repeat_key_begin in your /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  10. odroid_remote /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  11. If you’re satisfied with the result, disable the debug_enable flag again:
  12. sed -i 's/debug_enable\ =\ 1/debug_enable\ =\ 0/' /etc/odroid_remote.conf
  13. And one final last time, run the odroid_remote-program:
  14. odroid_remote /etc/odroid_remote.conf

Here’s my sample /etc/odroid_remote.conf, I configured it using a YAMAHA RV520 remote control:

factory_code = 0x1f000001
work_mode = 0
repeat_enable = 1
repeat_delay = 40
repeat_peroid = 39
release_delay = 121
debug_enable = 1
