Remote Controls
---------------
If you are using MythTV with just a remote control then it is suggested
that you
map the remote control keys as described below. Your remote control may
not
have the same set of keys as those named below, the names are only a
suggestion
that roughly correspond to the function.
If you are adding new key bindings to the program then consideration of
this
suggested list will help users with remote controls.
This list assumes a minimal remote control that only has 20 keys, nearly
all
features can be used with this configuration. If you have more keys then
you
can access all of the features. With only 16 keys most features are
usable.

[mythtv-users] Missing Keys.txt
Hi All,
I've installed MythTV useing Jarod and have it pretty much working. This
is
cool stuff.
Learning to drive it was not so easy though, and eventually I realised
that
there is a file called keys.txt that is not
included in the binary distributions or in the documentation.
I've googled for this without success.
*** Please could somebody post this file to this bulletin board. There
must
be a whole load of mythics who have not seen this and some who don't even
know it exists. ****
Comercial skip and marking is an area wherei really have no clue what keys
to use and random experiments have not produced much information.
Robert K., I think this needs to be in your guide "Installing and using
MythTV".
regards,
Mark Winder.
