i have these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JFZXF20/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

So how do i access the logs or what i mean is if i use SSH on my laptop make it much easy to work. So first it ask me to login and then do i type in /dev or livelog

I added a media player to another Pi 4.

Now looking into adding a IR receiver to power on/off the Pi.

I found this here

$ sudo apt-get update

$ sudo apt-get install lirc

$ sudo mv /etc/lirc/lirc_options.conf.dist /etc/lirc/lirc_options.conf

$ sudo apt-get install lirc

how to edit this

driver = default

device = /dev/lirc0

$ sudo mv /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.dist /etc/lirc/lircd.conf

dtoverlay=gpio-ir,gpio_pin=17

or

#dtoverlay=gpio-ir-tx, gpio_pin=18

$ sudo systemctl stop lircd.service

$ sudo systemctl start lircd.service

$ sudo systemctl status lircd.service

$ sudo reboot

$ sudo systemctl stop lircd.service

$ sudo mode2 -d /dev/lirc0

point remote to ir receiver and press button

and exit

How would i clean or edit this to work out right

now that i have the player up and running on my pi 4 how do i get a remote running on it. I bought the two Apple remotes that it has list in the plugins but as i tried both remotes. A1156 and A2195 they still don’t work. i saved and rebooted the player.

33

No, you don’t type /dev - I meant the volumio.local/dev page from the browser… Try visiting it and seeing if things become a bit clearer.
Otherwise:

Given the amount of things you have been trying to install, you would be much better of flashing a new SD card and starting again.

34

I have two Apple remotes A1156 and A1294 like it shows in the “IR Remote Controller.” that shows the remotes in settings here
I tried each of the Apple remotes and save/ rebooted and nothing happen.
So how do i get to the IR remote Configurations to get the remote going on the player.

35

Would this also work with Volumio 3.179?

36

Don’t know what you mean specifically, but: The Touch Display plugin is available from the plugin store, the IR Controller plugin not yet.

37

So all i need to do is in the plugin, select JustBoom that i got, set the GPIO configurations to GPIO 24. Then do i just connect the jumper wire from the Single out/Ground/ power from the IR sensor to the ground 3.3vol GPIO 24 and reboot.

38

If this is meant as a question: Yes.

If not already done: Make sure before choosing GPIO 24 that it is not already used elsewhere, e.g. by a DAC.

Also note that the GPIO number is not the number of the physical pin to which the infrared receiver is connected, but the Broadcom pin number (BCM), cf. GPIO 24 at Raspberry Pi GPIO Pinout.

39

Right now i haven’t got the right sound card, so i added this https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08C2DJBT2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and i still have access to the GPIO pins
