### Setting up a random remote
Use `irrecord` to create a lirc Config file and copy the generated file in 
`/etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/your-remotes-name.lircd.conf`  
You can find and edit the used keycodes: `~/discobert/lircrc`

My remote:  
`sudo cp Sony-RM-V33E.lircd.conf /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d/`


### DMX not working?
download udmx-pyusb:  
Clone https://github.com/dhocker/udmx-pyusb  
... and add user permissions for udmx device
```
sudo cp 98-uDMX-usb.rules /etc/udev/rules.d
```
