NAME
       irrecord - application for recording IR-codes for usage with LIRC

SYNOPSIS
       irrecord [options] file

DESCRIPTION
       This  program will record the signals from your remote control and cre‐
       ate a config file for lircd. A proper config file for  lircd  is	 maybe
       the  most vital part of this package, so you should invest some time to
       create a working config file. Although I put a good deal of  effort  in
       this  program  it  is often not possible to automatically recognize all
       features of a remote control.

       If the program fails to recognize the protocol of  the  remote  control
       you  should  use the --force option to at least create a config file in
       raw mode.

       If file already exists and contains a valid config  irrecord  will  use
       the  protocol  description  found there and will only try to record the
       buttons. This is very useful if you want to learn a remote where config
       files of the same brand are already available. Of course this will only
       work if the remotes use the same protocol but it's  worth  a  try.  You
       will  find  template  files  for	 the  most  common  protocols  in  the
       remotes/generic/ directory of this package. The name of the new file is
       created by appending .conf to the given filename in this case.

       -h --help

       -v --version
	      display version

       -f --force
	      force raw mode

       -H --driver=driver
	      use given driver

       -d --device=device
	      read from given device

SEE ALSO
       The  documentation  for	lirc  is  maintained  as  html pages. They are
       located under html/ in the documentation directory.

       Further information on this topic is available in section  "Adding  new
       remote controls" in html/help.html
