[mythtv-users] MythDVD keybindings

[Dr NoName]

I never did manage to get mythtv to just work with
lirc, so I'm running irxevent. My question is twofold:

1. What do I need to do to make mythtv work with lirc
without irxevent? (yes, I did compile it with lirc
support but it does nothing)

2. If that's not possible, how can I use lirc to
control 2 different applications with different
keybindings?

thanks,

Eugene
