Introduction
Pierogi is a universal infra-red control application for Fremantle written in Qt.
The package is currently in Testing/Development.
More information on the package can be found...
Installation
As mentioned this package is currently in Testing/Development and not currently for normal users. The latest versions can be found in the Devel repository and can be installed using the N900 Application Manager (HAM).
Operation
Requesting Keysets and Devices
Please note that Pierogi's keyset database, while growing, is still "incomplet and inkorrekt"; some buttons may not yet be supported correctly (or I may have them mapped wrong), and many brands don't yet have their keysets entered at all. If you'd like to see a particular brand of device supported, please post a message below or send me a note!
One more request: if it isn't too much of a bother, I would love to know which specific devices actually do work with Pierogi. The LIRC config files don't concern themselves with anything but remote control codes, so I don't myself know what models of device work with what keysets. sixwheeledbeast has created a wiki to list working devices:
http://wiki.maemo.org/Pierogi_Device_Compatibility_List
Please go ahead and edit the wiki to add your device to the list. Thanks!
You can now also add device keyset requests through the above Wiki page! Just enter your device at the bottom of the page. This should be much easier than navigating through dozens of posts to see if someone has already made the same request...
