[PLUGIN] IR Remote Controller feedback thread

Hi All,

I have, earlier today, posted a question regarding exactly this Audiophonics remote control being discussed here in another thread (DAC sabre Audiophonics). As explained over there, I have:

  • AUDIOPHONICS EVO-SABRE Balanced DAC 2x ES9038Q2M USB GPIO Raspberry Pi SPDIF Bluetooth XLR RCA
  • a RBPI4
  • the Waveshare 7.9inch HDMI touch display
  • and of course Volumio running on it

My problem is that the remote control provided with the Audiophonics DAC was only working partially, the play/pause and left/right etc. buttons were not working. Everything else is just fine.

Later then, I found this thread and followed the suggestions:

  1. install the “IR Remote Controller” plugin
  2. copy the content of that zip with the “Audiophonics RaspDAC Mini” profile to the right place
  3. select that profile in the plugin, and set GPIO to 4 (simply because I did not know any better)
  4. reboot

Now I have the play/pause and left/right buttons also working nicely, with the only issue being that sometimes pressing a button once results into more than 1 action - e.g. pressing “right” once, but moving to the second or third next track.

Maybe also relevant, the status of the remote control int the “Audiophonics Evo Sabre” plugin is now showing errors (and fomerly did not).

So, in essence it seems that that Audiophonics RaspDAC Mini profile is doing something better than the DAC plugin, but is also somehow conflicting with it.

Any suggestions anyone?
