Being USB HID, it _is_ keypresses. It's not fake, because it's no
different than a USB keyboard (which is also HID).

Works even in the console. :)

The unit I've been using is a Shuttle one, but it not tied to Shuttle
hardware at all. The remote doesn't have quite enough buttons (and the
mouse on it is a HID mouse, which isn't really useful for Myth in some
ways), but if you're mapping on to a universal it's pretty good.
