Infrared emitter

Posted by Etienne Rollin at January 25. 2008

Hello,




I'm reading the documentation and on the first page it says that there's an infrared emitter.  Is it referring to the remote control or there is actually an emitter on tux himself that we can program?  It would be so nice to control the TV with my tux.




Thanks


Etienne

As far as I understand this, tux can also emit IR:

I will test this next week to control an LED-Bar.

There's a prior forum posts discussing this function. In short, only RC5 codes are supported as of now. If you're using another protocol, you'll have to implement it in firmware. There are plans to have a 'universal' IR firmware module, but not time yet.
