Questions

If you think you can help andswer these questions (or perhaps add others) and build this public information resource, please create an accountand get involved.

Some questions that come to mind when gathering the info

  • There seems to be LIRC support in the kernel, reciva also provides lirc sources. How hard would it be to add a remote to existing radios ?
 - It's very easy, I've got one working on a Logik IR100. All radios include LIRC but the configuration file needs to be changed so shell access is necessary. --Rdk 16:49, 21 August 2007 (CEST)
  • What is the purpose of the libgpg-error package Reciva provides ? Is this just used as a generic error reporting framework?

Presumably libgcrypt depends on it.

  • Does the Barracuda use special co-processors or dedicated hardware for audio codecs ?
 - The audio codecs are all implemented as software libraries, new ones have been added over time e.g. aac+ and now FLAC --Rdk 16:49, 21 August 2007 (CEST)
