[mythtv-users] PDA Remotes using VNC

[Buechler, Mark R]

I would think a better method would be to send commands directly to the
mythfrontend. Does mythfronted open a listening port?

Should be quite doable - depending if there's a way for any program to
send fake ir signals to lircd.  I've only had a quick chance to glance
at the lircd docs, but I didn't find anything that will allow you to do
that?

Anyone know?
