0x03 KEY_3
0x04 KEY_4
0x05 KEY_5
0x06 KEY_6
0x07 KEY_7
0x08 KEY_8
0x09 KEY_9
0x0B KEY_RED
0x0C KEY_OPTION
0x0D KEY_MENU
0x0F KEY_MUTE
0x10 KEY_VOLUMEUP
0x11 KEY_VOLUMEDOWN
0x18 KEY_REWIND
0x1E KEY_FORWARD
0x1F KEY_EXIT
0x20 KEY_CHANNELUP
0x21 KEY_CHANNELDOWN
0x24 KEY_BACK
0x25 KEY_OK
0x29 KEY_BLUE
0x2E KEY_GREEN
0x30 KEY_PLAYPAUSE
0x32 KEY_REWIND
0x34 KEY_FASTFORWARD
0x35 KEY_PLAY
0x36 KEY_STOP
0x37 KEY_RECORD
0x38 KEY_YELLOW
0x3B KEY_GOTO
0x3C KEY_ZOOM
0x3D KEY_POWER
