I've not but I've *got* a working IR setup, it's just it wont
read the nova-t remote.

I've not tried using the nova-t's IR sensor.
This is possibly not really for this list (its more a lirc problem) but
nevermind.
The problem is that the pcr-350's remote works *perfectly*, is all set
up with lirc, works with mythtv everything, I've even got irexec setup
to
reboot the frontend (and restart the backend if it's down).
The nova-t (909) however came with a slightly bigger remote with lots
more buttons,
a load of which are *perfect* for mythtv so I thought that using the
nova-t
remote would just be as easy as using irrecord to record the buttons and
replace the pvr-350's lircrc file with the new nova-t one.
Except it doesn't work and I don't know why. :-(
Thanks
