Basically, since irrecord has produced a file with raw codes, it has not 
been able to decode the remote signals completely. So, this is most 
likely about the config file.

You might want to re-check the trivial problems (ambient light, bad 
remote batteries, distance remote <-> receiver...) and re-run irrecord. 
If you still cannot create a non-raw config file, your next stop might 
be irscrutinizer; perhaps Bengt can provide some info here?

Note that the lirc version you are using is very old and not supported 
upstream i. e., I don't really know what I'm talking about here ;)


Cheers!
