Ok, since I can't seem to find anyone that's really done exactly what I
want to do, I seem to be forging new ground. Unfortunately, I'm not that
great at it, so I have a few questions. I plan on using one of the
little IR modules to decode the actual IR signal and give me a ttl out.
The question now is, what's the best way to deal with it?  I'd like to
stay away from just polling, because the PIC will be doing a bunch of
other things, and I don't want to run the risk of missing IR pulses. I
could use the external interrupt, so that every time there is a pulse
I'd check a TMR. The problem I see there is that I have to set the
interrupt to trigger on rising edge or falling edge, I can't do both. I
don't want to mess with portB interrupt on change. I was thinking I
could use the CCP module, but I don't really know how. I guess it would
trigger when it receives a pulse from the IR module, then captures the
value in the TMR. Then I could check the value of that against what my
high and low timings should be, and go from there. Again I think I run
into the rising/falling edge thing though. I'm really confused here. I'm
sure that there is a solution somewhere, I just can't quite figure it
out.

If you have any ideas or suggestions, they will be appreciated!

Thanks,

Josh
