ok, i read it and also have Volumio on a raspberry Pi 4 and i got down to her when trying to get the IR receiver going
Log in with ssh as:
user: pi
password: raspberry
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install lirc
Now we need to configure lirc hardware:
sudo nano /etc/lirc/hardware.conf
and it stopped here
Is there a sheet with better instructions and when it talks about editing this, that throws me off. I have a VS1838B https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B087ZRD3LH/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1#customerReviews
