I am fairly certain that mythfrontend parses the .lircrc file in your home directory. You should have a .lirc directory and in that you will have all your lirc conf files. <BR>
<BR>
ls .lirc<BR>
elisa mplayer mythtv oldmythtv totem vlc xine xmame xmess<BR>
<BR>
But mythfrontend doesn't use that directory by default.<BR>
<BR>
You need to either link the .lircrc file to .lirc/mythtv<BR>
<BR>
ln -s .lirc/mythtv .lircrc<BR>
<BR>
will give you the following <BR>
<BR>
ls -la<BR>
lrwxrwxrwx 1 myth myth 12 2010-04-02 23:04 .lircrc -> .lirc/mythtv<BR>
<BR>
or<BR>
<BR>
have a file like I listed previously with includes for all the conf files<BR>
<BR>
cat .lircrc<BR>
#Custom lircrc generated via mythbuntu-lirc-generator<BR>
#All application specific lircrc files are within ~/.lirc<BR>
include ~/.lirc/mythtv <BR>
include ~/.lirc/mplayer <BR>
include ~/.lirc/xine <BR>
include ~/.lirc/vlc <BR>
include ~/.lirc/xmame <BR>
include ~/.lirc/xmess <BR>
include ~/.lirc/totem <BR>
include ~/.lirc/elisa<BR>
<BR>
The result you are getting is exactly what you would expect if you don't have the .lircrc file located in your home directory.<BR>

The remote is working fine – running irw gives correct output. It seems either the output from lircd is not getting to Myth, or Myth is not responding to the input. I do not currently use the remote to control any other apps (eg mplayer) so will try that when I get home to see if the issue is specific to MythTV or a general problem.<BR>

Hmm,<BR>
<BR>
I have a similar problem with another remote, the theme seems to be that I have problems with the USB receiver no longer working. I recall there is something about them going to sleep or being disconnected after long periods of inactivity?<BR>
<BR>
if you go <BR>
<BR>
dmesg | grep disconnect<BR>
<BR>
what do you get?<BR>
<BR>
This could be an avenue to explore.<BR>

Make sure you have a .lircrc file in your home directory that myth runs under.<BR>
<BR>
It should have <BR>
<BR>
cat .lircrc<BR>
#Custom lircrc generated via mythbuntu-lirc-generator<BR>
#All application specific lircrc files are within ~/.lirc<BR>
include ~/.lirc/mythtv <BR>
include ~/.lirc/mplayer <BR>
include ~/.lirc/xine <BR>
include ~/.lirc/vlc <BR>
include ~/.lirc/xmame <BR>
include ~/.lirc/xmess <BR>
include ~/.lirc/totem <BR>
include ~/.lirc/elisa<BR>
<BR>
in it<BR>

Nope, it's all good, and has not changed.
I should of mentioned that I am using JYA's repos.
