Hmm.. the lme2510 receives the scancode directly. So, this patch shouldn't affect it. So, we're stuck with the Tivo IR. On Tivo, only a few keys (with duplicated scancodes) don't start with 0xa10c. So, it *seems* that this is an address. The best here would be to try to get a Tivo remote controller[1], and do some tests with a driver that has a hardware decoder capable of output NEC32 data, and some driver that receives raw IR data in order to be sure. In any case, we need to patch both the NEC32 decoder and the table at the same time, to be 100% sure. [1] or some universal remote controller that could emulate the Tivo's scan codes. I suspect that the IR in question is this one, but maybe Jarod could shed some light here: https://www.amazon.com/TiVo-Remote-Control-Universal-Replacement/dp/B00DYYKA04 > > Signed-off-by: Sean Young <sean@mess.org> > --- > drivers/media/rc/ir-nec-decoder.c | 5 ++++- > 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > > diff --git a/drivers/media/rc/ir-nec-decoder.c b/drivers/media/rc/ir-nec-decoder.c > index 2a9d155..ba02d05 100644 > --- a/drivers/media/rc/ir-nec-decoder.c > +++ b/drivers/media/rc/ir-nec-decoder.c > @@ -170,7 +170,10 @@ static int ir_nec_decode(struct rc_dev *dev, struct ir_raw_event ev) > if (send_32bits) { > /* NEC transport, but modified protocol, used by at > * least Apple and TiVo remotes */ > - scancode = data->bits; > + scancode = address << 24 | > + not_address << 16 | > + command << 8 | > + not_command; > IR_dprintk(1, "NEC (modified) scancode 0x%08x\n", scancode); > rc_type = RC_TYPE_NEC32; > } else if ((address ^ not_address) != 0xff) { Thanks, Mauro -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

I'm pretty sure I do have both a remote and receiver on hand that would fit the bill here though. Is the question primarily about what actually gets emitted by the TiVo remote?

Sean suspects that we're decoding the NEC 32 bits in the wrong order at the in-kernel NEC decoder on x86[1]. The idea here is to double-check how the bits are encapsulated, in order to do the right thing at the IR decoder. [1] the current code actually sucks, as it produces different scancodes on big endian or little endian, so it needs to be fixed anyway, as it simply does: scancode = data->bits; instead of using be32_to_cpu().

Hardware nec decoders send each byte lsb first, but ir-nec-decoder.c decoder does msb first for nec32 (not for extended nec or plain nec). If we have a mode2 recording of the remote (and if we know what button it is), then we can replay it against a hardware nec decoder and the software decoder. Rather than mode2, this can also be done with ir-ctl which is in v4l-utils git. Alternatively simply checking if the tivo keymap works with the software decoder (mceusb hardware for example) should be sufficient. That would be really helpful, thanks.

Bits are shifted in one at at time in the nec decoder so it is endian safe. The problem is that the same NEC32 IR will produce different scancodes with ir-nec-decoder.c and other nec decoders, e.g. dib0700_core.c Sean -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-media" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

The bits are sent in lsb first. Hardware decoders also send nec32 in this order (e.g. dib0700). This should be consistent, however I have no way of knowing which order the LME2510 and Tivo keymaps are (the only two kernel keymaps with NEC32).
