How to make irxevent rerun automatically ?

Hi,


Sometimes, the irxevent will crash for unknow reason. Is
there any way can make irxevent to run itself again. Like
respawn or something. Any ideas ?

I can't help you with getting irxevent to rerun, but I may be able to help
you with why it is crashing.
My irxevent started crashing out of the blue, about twice a day. Over a
period of two weeks, it started crashing more and more often, until a point
occurred where it wouldn't crash anymore, but my remote stopped working.

Guess what?
My batteries in my remote were dying, and finally died.
The interaction between dying remote batteries and irxevent is weird, so
it's a very real possibility that this is your problem.

Good luck.

Albert

Simple bit of bash script:

while [ 1 ]; do irxevent; done

Although I've never had irxevent crash unless mythfrontend was in the
process of crashing too.
