<pre wrap="">I just got a remote yesterday, a Hauppauge similar to the ones described
in this thread. The output from lsusb -v doesn't give the same TopSeed
Technology Corp ID as described, but I didn't have *too* much trouble
getting it all to work pretty well - thanks for the lircd.conf, Geoff!
The key layout is different again from most that I've seen, but it sure
beats having the keyboard as the only viable controller!
But I wanna go further! The mythtv wiki describes how some MCE type
controllers are minimally programmable. That is, on/off and vol up and
vol down buttons can be taught the codes from another device. My
interest is I want to use the power on/off to turn the TV power on/off -
currently the last thing I have to have that remote hanging about for...
But the various instructions such as
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote">http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote</a> describe holding down DVD menu and
OK until the backlight goes off, etc - but my remote isn't backlit. How
can I tell if my remote is 'teachable', and how do I go about it?
Thanks!
Nick in Tauranga
