I'll second that !


But before I leave the subject, do you know if there is a good reference online where the different functions are described ? Part of the problem I have is figuring out what needs to go where given that there are quite a few scopes, and some of them have a fair number of options which may not be immediately obvious if you aren't familiar with the system ?

Also, how do I diagnose another problem ?
According to ir-whateveritis, Play on my remote creates a KEY_PLAY event, and according to the source, this should get passed threough to Myth (it's <256). But it doesn't appear to be recognised (ie Myth doesn't seem to receive anything) when I have the "Press a button" dialog open.
