Then I trained the FLIRC to output the keys MythTV likes, plus I added some codes that I assigned to jump points in Setup -> Edit Keys -> JumpPoints. The result has been very satisfactory, to the point I'm not too concerned when someone who has never seen the setup before picks up the remote and starts trying to use it. Now if the LCD screen on the Harmony remote wasn't so hard on batteries…

I tried having my FLIRC use the MCE remote, however I had problems with it because it would for example think the mce remote 4 was a 3, or a FF key was a rewind or similar problems. I was kind of disappointed in the FLIRC in that respect, but it worked fine using the bluray remote as the source.
