From 9dfe4e8339499bfe8e9a362fefc290b4cb9c3803 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Sun, 4 Apr 2010 14:06:55 -0300 Subject: V4L/DVB: ir-core: Add support for badly-implemented hardware decoders A few hardware Remote Controller decoders, even using a standard protocol, aren't able to provide the entire scancode. Due to that, the capability of using other IR's are limited on those hardware. Adds a way to indicate to ir-core what are the bits that the hardware provides, from a scancode, allowing the addition of a complete IR table to the kernel and allowing a limited support for changing the Remote Controller on those devices.
