Hi. I try to control RGB led strip with arduino thru Remote control. So I use Tlc5940 for 15 PWM chanel but I want use also ir remote. But I got problem Tlc5940 library and Ir remote library probably share one pin on the same time and wont work together. So I try read IR without library but I cant explain how to do. So if somebody try that please help me.

Well, i,ve had the same problem in my wordclock project. I've used the TLC5940 as LED-Driver too and TSOP4138 as IR Receiver.
That's work fine when i use the TLC and IR Libraries separately, but they did not work probably together.
The reason: Both Lib's are using the Timer 1 and/or Timer 2 of the ATMega for timing. Workaround: Use the IR-Code from Adafruit instead of the IRRemote Library. Put that code into a Interrupt routine and use Input Pins INT0 or INT1 for TSOP4138 (or whatever) That work's without Timers and you can use the TLC-Lib...
Hope, that helps...
