Hi all,
I try to connect the Apple A1294 as IR remote control on a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with HiFi Berry DAC+.
I installed the PluIns: FusionDSP, TouchDisplay, IR Remote Controller and activated them.
I do not use the touch functionality of the TouchDisplay PlugIn therefore I need the full IR Remote Controller function.
After installing the IR Remote Controller and configuring it for Apple Remote A1294 - nothing happens, nevertheless what I configured (always with reboots).
Then I saw that the directory: /data/INTERNAL/ir_controller/configurations
was empty and I created a subdir “Apple Remote A1294”
There I created a file lircd.conf with the following content:
# Please make this file available to others

end codes
end remote
After a reboot it works for Play/Stop Forward/Backward Volume
but the MENU button doesn’t work.
I would expect that the Left/Right/Up/Down keys work like a mouse after switching to MENU, but nothing happens.
Has anyone a tip for me?
Thanx a lot in advance
Klaus
