As some of you may already know (for those who don't, check out Part 1 and Part 2 of my HOWTO on making a home-brew IR receiver for LIRC), I had made changes to the audio-alsa driver in LIRC to support sound cards that do not support capturing audio samples in stereo.
You will be glad to know that, as of 3nd June 2008 you can have this support directly in LIRC's CVS copy. To use the stereo feature you need to specify which channel to read the samples from, left or right. Here is an example on how to get irrecord listening to the right channel.
irrecord -d hw@44100,r file.config
If you want audio-alsa to capture samples from the left channel then specify 'l' instead of 'r'
