IR Remote Control with Argon One and Harmony Elite - Lusayalumino - 02-28-2021 I've got an Argon One V2 Case (with built-in infrared) with Raspberry Pi 4B. I'm trying to use a Logitech Harmony Elite remote to control some basic functions in Moode (play, pause, next track). I've Successfully loaded Argon One's IR scripts in SSH (argonone-ir). Articles I've read recommend adding one of the following "Devices" to the Harmony Remote: - Microsoft Kodi - Raspberry Pi 4 - Flirc Kodi Nothing I have done seems to yield any results; does anyone have any wisdom? If this isn't possible, is it possible to remote control Moode over IP? (the Logitech Harmony Hub can control IP devices) RE: IR Remote Control with Argon One and Harmony Elite - TheOldPresbyope - 02-28-2021 (02-28-2021, 02:39 PM)Lusayalumino Wrote: I've got an Argon One V2 Case (with built-in infrared) with Raspberry Pi 4B.

Bottom line: choose a personality [1], read our guides to get a feel for what you have to do to make moOde exercise the usual run/pause/next/prev and vol up/down, and fiddle with argonone-ir to get what you want. Or, forget about argonone-ir and use lirc instead. WiFi-based control is intriguing but you'd have to know a lot more about the Harmony Elite in order to make it work with moOde (or even to determine that it can be done). Regards, Kent [1] of your choices I'd suggest Microsoft Kodi because that's well documented on various websites. RE: IR Remote Control with Argon One and Harmony Elite - Lusayalumino - 02-28-2021 Thanks for your help. Would this mean purchasing a lirc IR, or rather using the built-in Argon IR and configuring the Argon IR settings to align with lirc?

To quote from the Wikipedia article, "LIRC is an open source package that allows users to receive and send infrared signals with a Linux-based computer system." I have one of the original-style Argon One cases and never bothered to solder in an IR receiver. Seems to me I saw folks posting on the InterWeb that they had done so and were using lirc with it. I would think lirc would work with the preinstalled IR hardware in the new-style Argon One case but I imagine there's a Argon wiki/forum where you could ask. Regards, Kent PS - Candidly, I wouldn't be surprised if the argnone-ir script is based on lirc. That's why I was looking on the Argon40 site for the script.

It is and there is good lirc info for the Argon case here.. https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=286230 With a success reported... https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=286230#p1824501 RE: IR Remote Control with Argon One and Harmony Elite - Lusayalumino - 03-01-2021 Thanks for the help; I'm going to give it a shot and will report back. |
