Lircd, irrecord shows input but irw doesn't

Hi,

I have IR receiver with rtl2832u DVB-T SDR device. I managed to create configuration file for my pilot (only one button for testing):

sudo irrecord --device=/dev/lirc0 MyRtlRemote.conf
...CUT...
Hold down an arbitrary button.
................................................................................
Found gap length: 409981
Now enter the names for the buttons.

Please enter the name for the next button (press <ENTER> to finish recording)
KEY_CHANNELUP

Now hold down button "KEY_CHANNELUP".

Please enter the name for the next button (press <ENTER> to finish recording)

Successfully written config file MyRtlRemote.conf.

This file was moved to /etc/lirc/lircd.conf.d directory.

Then I started lircd with command:

sudo lircd -n -d /dev/lirc0

There is no output in irw when I press one configured button on pilot.

Any ideas, why my pilot doesn't work?

I've found two similar topics, but these solutions don't work for me:

My ir-keytable output:
