Thank you, Michael ! <br>
<br>
I thought for sure that I would have to maintain different versions of
the source code. Guess I better re-read lirc_atiusb.c A LOT more
closely. <br>
<br>
I'm using lirc-0.7.2, and I will go back into the package and read through it until I learn everything I need to know. <br>
<br>
You have saved me so much time, I can't thank you enough. Knowing
that I can match each separate remote to its specific MythTV system
using just settings in the control files, takes a big load off my mind.<br>
<br>
MythTV and LIRC - what a combination !<br>
