What type of IR Blasters will work?
I know the ones you can buy at http://www.irblaster.info work because that’s what I am using. You can buy one in the US for $15 (including shipping…cost is $16 in Canada). Also, any homemade IR Blaster you use should work. I am completely and totally uncertain about Actisys IR Blasters. Supposedly they work differently. I know nothing about them and cannot be sure they would work under this method. If you have an Actisys IR Blaster, I would suggest checking out http://iwamble.net/6901.html. He has written up a guide showing specifically how to set up an Actisys IR Blaster, but you’ll have to compile a second instance of LIRC. If you get an Actisys IR Blaster working under the setup in this guide, please let me know so I can add that information.
