An angled view of the Sony PS3 Bluetooth remote control.

Sony uses Bluetooth for wireless controllers including the BD Remote (Blueray Disc). The makes for a decent remote option

Here are the advantages

  • Inexpensive (< $25 USD)
  • Reasonable layout (51 buttons with separate arrows/seeking controls)
  • Radio Frequency operation (better range, non-line-of-sight)
  • Bluetooth pairing - multiple remotes don't interfere, no picking channels to use


Important.png Note: Some remotes (such as that pictured, have a "back" label on the 'cross'/X key, others have it on the "circle"/O


Linux

Cakemote - Python script that reads key presses

bdremote - Daemon that directs bdremote data to LIRC (a cakemote successor)

myth-btremote - Daemon that supports the bd remote with mythtv's network remote infrastructure

cakemote-mythtv.py - Cakemote script tweak for myth .22 keybindings and multikey press functions removed.

ps3_pair.py and ps3_unpair.py - Python script to pair and unpair your BD Remote (requires dbus-python and pygobject python modules)

HOW-TO_Setup_PS3_BD_Remote - A wiki based on the above xbmc.org forum thread. I strongly recommend that you use this method. The only XBMC specific stuff in these instructions is the sample input.conf. You will need to customize this for mythtv. Other than that, it is easier and more up to date than the instructions in the rest of this wiki entry.

The XBMC method uses an input.conf (/etc/bluetooth/input.conf) to map remote buttons to keyboard button presses. A suggested input.conf follows - remember to read the mappings and to change the MAC address


# input.conf - kitlaan custom
# Configuration file for the input service
#
# This section contains options which are not specific to any
# particular interface

#
# Set idle timeout (in seconds) before the connection will
# be disconnect (defaults to 0 for no timeout)

#
#
#
# This section contains options that are specific to a device
#
# change this MAC address to that of your paired device
# use "hcitool con" to list active bluetooth connections

A reboot is required to load the uinput kernel modules.

The Sony PS3 Remote Package

This is a package which you can download and install on your linux machine. It provides a daemon that will manage the connection with one or more PS3 Remotes and forwards your key presses to the LIRC daemon.

The package has the following features:

  • Graphical interface - for pairing and configuration
  • Combo buttons - you can for example get an up button, a left button along with a upleft button.
  • Regular buttons - repeats events while held and optionally generate key up and key down events.
  • Mode buttons - allows you to set for example the color buttons to activate different setup for the other keys.
  • Shift buttons - allows you to have one button modify the behavior of the other buttons
  • Sticky buttons - press once to activate and again to deactivate
  • IR Relays - if you have a IR transmitter for other equipment, you can connect the buttons on the remote to transmit those IR signals

This should be the preferred option if you want to control more than the MythTV frontend using the PS3 Remote (e.g. your sound system via IR, other LIRC compatible applications, mouse movements via ircmd etc.).

Installation

Download the tarball from Sourceforge and follow the instructions in the README File

https://sourceforge.net/projects/sonyps3remote/

Disadvantage

The package depends on a patched version of the BlueZ daemon. The package itself helps you to patch and compile the patched daemon, so it is not too complicated (just follow the instructions in the README). This is also the reason there is no binary distribution for the package, you have to compile the package yourself. Anyone familiar with the "./configure; make; make install" approach should not have any problems with this.

Configuration File

Here is a sample lircrc configuration file for MythTV to use as a starting point.

Configure lircd

Modify /etc/lirc/hardware.conf

# Arguments which will be used when launching lircd
LIRCD_ARGS="-H null --connect 127.0.0.1:8888"

Configure bluetooth

hidd doesn't seem to get along with bdremoted. The distribution default seems ok.

/etc/default/bluetooth

BLUETOOTH_ENABLED=1
HIDD_ENABLED=0

Enable startup scripts

# Turn on bdremote before lirc
for runlevel in 2 3 4 5; do
    ln -s ../init.d/bdremote /etc/rc${runlevel}.d/S18bdremote
done
for runlevel in 0 1 6; do
    ln -s ../init.d/bdremote /etc/rc${runlevel}.d/K82bdremote
done

Test Connectivity

Once you have bluetooth, lircd, and bdremoted up and running, it is a good idea to test that lirc is receiving signals from the remote. Simply run

# irw

and press some keys on the remote. You should see some output like:

0043 00 ps SonyBDRemote
0043 01 ps SonyBDRemote

If you don't see any output, it is likely that your BD remote has not properly paired with your computer. Some people say that

# hidd --search

while holding down start+enter on the remote will pair the remote. However, that did not work for me. Instead, I downloaded cakemote.py, edited it and entered my remote's hardware address, run it and hold start+enter on the remote. This has successfully paired the remote every time for me. irw should now print output when you press keys on the remote.

Some people may need to pair the remote each time the computer boots.

According to this bluez mailing list post, bluez-gnome can be used to permanently pair the device with your computer.

Linux MythTV Networked Bluetooth Remote

This module follows the work of MythControl on source forge and Antion Starikov's work for the PS3 BD remote driver. The two code bases are combined into a single element.

The file can be downloaded at: myth-btremote

The setup is the same as the standard LIRC interface, apart from the LIRC configuration, except that within the archive is a file for compiling/installing the driver, and also a set of files that are listed above, i.e. /etc/myth_btremote.conf, /etc/init.d/myth-btremoted which are useful for registering the daemon as a service.

The configuration file for the remote looks like :

#enter 
#ps 
#select 
#l3 
#r3 
#start 
#up 
#right 
#down 
#left 
#l2 
#r2 
#l1 
#r1 
#triangle 
#circle 
#cross 
#square 
num1 key 1
num2 key 2
num3 key 3
num4 key 4
num5 key 5
num6 key 6
num7 key 7
num8 key 8
num9 key 9
num0 key 0
return key escape 
#clear 
#eject 
#topmenu 
#time 
#prev 
#next 
#play 
#scanrev 
#scanfwd 
#stop 
#pause 
#popup 
#steprev 
#stepfwd 
#subtitle 
#audio 
#angle 
#display 
#blue 
#red  
#green 
#yellow 


All that is needed is to uncomment a line as you decide which key you want to use, and you just assign an action that is supported by the network interface List of supported commands
