[mythtv-users] configuring lirc for vlc

[northernsoulman]

Hi,
I've read countless posts on this subject but as yet have failed to get the
results I want!
I'm using vlc to play DVDs in Mythdora 5.0 (basically because it plays ALL
my DVDs reliably - wish I could get xine to work but that's another story).

I've edited my /home/mythtv/.vlc/vlcrc file to have the line control=lirc 

I've added button assignments to my /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc - for
example:

# Pause playback
begin
prog = vlc
button = PAUSE
repeat = 3
config = key-play-pause
end

# Seek forward 10 seconds
begin
prog = vlc
button = Forward
repeat = 3
config = key-jump+10sec
end


HOWEVER, only "play" "pause" "stop" and the navigation buttons in a DVD menu
(up, down, left, right) will actually do anything.
I simply can't get fast forward, rewind, bookmarks, chapter jumps etc etc to
work from my remote......I'm using a mceusb remote with all the buttons
mapped out in my lircd.conf - and everything works fine when using xine to
playback recordings.

Any help appreciated - thanks
:O )
