USB Infrared Toy / Re: IR Toy and lirc on Linux
Hi everyone. I know this post is old, but I am trying to use USB IR Toy on Ubuntu 20.04, and I can not get it to work.
I tryied every step in lank23's tutorial, but I get hang on step 8 "irrecord -H irman -d /dev/ttyUSB0 RemoteXXX.conf", I get error saying I don't have permisions for that device, or/and to check lirc service, but lirc servise is not running.
In the end I could not get it working, and after a day of fiddling, I ordered myself a Flirc USB IR receiver :-)

Nevertheless, I cold not get sense in this tutorial, and was asking if somebody can explain it to me ?

In steps 1 and 2 we stop the current driver and stop the default driver from loading on plug in / boot up, and after that when I plug IR Toy there is no more /dev/ttyUSB0 , but in step 8 we call irrecord with device path /dev/ttyUSB0 which does not exist anymore ?

Can someone explain this to me ?
