Contact Contacting the maintainer Please send comments, questions, bug reports, feature requests, patches, etc. There's a mailinglist concerning IRMP3.
Topic is discussion about usage, development, problems and announcement of new versions.
First of all, you should make sure that you have recent versions of the programs IRMP3 interacts with. Check if the needed programs do run without errors if started standalone. Check if mpg123 does play a mp3 if called directly, check if LIRC is receiving data from the remotes, etc. Check the programs documentation on how to use it and how to test if it's working properly. This will start IRMP3 in foreground and dump a lot of debug information onto the screen.
