hi yabba,

thank's for the very useful software, but i've a problem to enjoy with my sony alpha 55, because it won't work properly.
I've installed pykake 7.3.2 on a n900,rebooted the system and choosen remote control on my camera. But if pressed the shutter button pointing to my camera nothing happens.
I think, that the command strings of minolta cams are not the same as sony's newer alpha camera generation. Please tell me what maybe the reason for this malfunction.

Your quesses are as good as mine, I don't have Minolta neither Alpha to test them, so I just added that Minolta remote (which was said that it may work with Alpha), crossed my fingers and kicked it to the autobuilder, because that is all I can do for cameras not made by Olympus.

Anyway, here is short check list to find plausible errors:
1. Does the IR sensor blink (just watch it trought the live view), if not, then the problem is in device (my sensor is blinking), or if you have irreco installed, it might cause some errors for lirc files.
2. If you run the pykake from the xterm (python /opt/pykake/pykake.py), do you get any error output?
3. Double check that you have set your camera in Remote mode, so it knows to look out for IR signal.

No, i havnīt installed irreco and my ir-led isnīt blinking (watched by live view as told)
2. If you run the pykake from the xterm (python /opt/pykake/pykake.py), do you get any error output?
Iīve tried this, but there is no error shown and it starts up properly
3. Double check that you have set your camera in Remote mode, so it knows to look out for IR signal.
Itīs seemingly a problem of my device. Iīll test some other ir apps in front of the camera and maybe try to reinstall my firmware. If iīve got it working, iīll tell you my solutionThankīs for your fast response

Doesnt work for my Sony A500, either.
LIRC starts successfully and has started it's daemon. There is no error outputed when i try the Shutter button.
However... i cant see a red light through the live-view... i know that it has captured invisible light before in the same way, but it didnt this time. (Might be too dark?)
Any advice? I rebooted once.

Hi all.

I've found a lirc file on dpreview with all the RMT-DSLR1 buttons scaned.
Names S and S2 should be the instant shoot and 2s delay shoot.

Yabba, is that possible to you including it in your file format ?
That would be great if we had a conf file where include our raw codes.
Regards

Full lirc file
http://mjr.org/RMT-DSLR1.lirc

shot and 2s delay

Code:
begin remote
	name	RMT-DSLR1
	flags	RAW_CODES|CONST_LENGTH
	eps	30
	aeps	100
	gap	11877
		begin raw_codes

I just tested the pykabe 0.7.3 (newest version). I went ahead and installed irreco so as to have the full IR package.
When I had pykabe running and tested it with my canon, nothing happened. On rare occations the lens autofocused, but nothing beyond that. So I went over the irreco and tried that, nothing. So while having both apps running I switched over to pykabe and suddenly everything worked as it should. After a little experimenting I came to the conclusion that pykabe doesn't work without having irreco running in the background.

It works Perfectly with my 550d!!! I was looking to invest in a remote shutter release to do long exposure photography without touching my dslr, now I dont have to! Great Work hope you keep creating such software!

I can confirm that A77 works with cipper's fix. Don't forget to run irreco and pyKake together.
Thank you
