[mythtv-users] Alternate IR receiver with PVR-x50

[nate s]

heh lirc supports homebrew recievers *anywhere*

you can actually connect a reciecer to the input of your sound card if
you really want to.

On a more serious note, I noticed a link to this site on the lirc page recently:
http://usbirboy.sourceforge.net/

It appears to be a project for a homebrew usb ir reciever.
