[mythtv-users] LIRCRC Question

[Nowhere]

Which release of Myth are you using? If 0.14 you don't need irxevent as
Myth has native Lirc support.  I am doing what you want and it look like
this...

# Fast forward 
begin
prog = mythtv
button = FFW
repeat = 3
config = >
end

# Rewind 
begin
prog = mythtv
button = REW
repeat = 3
config = <
end

# Skip forward (10 min default)
begin
prog = mythtv
button = SKIP
repeat = 3
config = PgDown
end

# Skip backward (10 min default)
begin
prog = mythtv
button = REPLAY
repeat = 3
config = PgUp
end

If you are pre-0.14 I can't help yah. I started with 0.14.

Hope this helps.
Eric
