The raw code results don't look like that. sample:

begin remote

   name  mcemote.conf
   flags RAW_CODES
   eps            30
   aeps          100

   gap          48833

       begin raw_codes

           name KEY_PLAY
              2026     917    1024     917    1024     917
              1024     426     512     917     512     426
              1024     938    1024     426     512     917
              1024     426     533     917     512

           name KEY_STOP
              2026     917    1024     917    1024     917
              1024     426     512     426     533     426
               512     426     512     426     512     917
              1024     917     512     426     512     426
              1024
      end raw_codes

end remote

The remote name is just a random string.

* I've just noticed there is an -a option to irrecord, to analyse raw codes, but 
I have no idea how to use it or what it does. Needless to say, the documentation 
is sparse on the subject :)
