Hi I just got a new R6C and admitting only looking at the case I was expecting it to have a IR receiver build in. But in fact it's only a plastic plug.
Now there is a IR module available https://wiki.friendlyelec.com/wiki/index.php/Matrix_-_IR_Receiver but I'm not sure if that fits in the case or can be properly connected to the board and the OS (openwrt or debian) will support it.

Anybody has experience with this?

@snoopair Are you planning to use the IR receiver for media control, smart home, or any specific application on OpenWRT/Debian? I'm curious because I want to understand clearly to discuss more deeply about driver compatibility and configuration on the OS. Incredibox
