I started to look into this "many moons" ago, but then found out that Dish
receivers can be set to 16 different IR codesets, so it was un-necessary for
me. (I have 3 dish network receivers, and with them set to different codes
I have just one lirc instance that controls all 3 receivers.)
Also, I beleive the newer versions of lirc make the above page's 'hack'
unnecessary, as I believe you can now run multiple lirc instances. - You'd
have to consult the lirc documentation or users list for details on how to
set it up though, as I haven't looked at that functionality for a couple of
years now. (I stopped following the trail when I determined I could use one
instance of LIRC)
