PlayStation 3 Blu-ray Disc Remote

Questions and Comments

What's the best way to implement a driver?

• With hidd running an input device gets created, but nothing except a SYN event gets reported there (checked with evtest ). This is because the HID descriptor does not define anything except an 11-byte data input package.
• Some ideas might be taken from CWiid project .

Someone else started to tinker with this some time ago. I can't find more than the first version of a python script . This won't run on Fedora PPC because of an endianness bug in pybluez. And hidd needs to be stopped to get it working.

Test Script

Here's a python script I wrote for testing purposes:

• Image:PlayStation BDRemote bd-remote.py bd-remote.py]

It's based on WillWoods' wiimote script .
