I am probably in a very small minority here, but I decided against
LIRC. Instead I found this great IR keyboard for 5 bucks. I then took
my expensive IR remote control that was controling all my home
electronics, and just taught it the keys that are needed in myth. Its
pretty slick... with 1 key press, my tv comes up on the correct input,
receiver comes up on correct input, and my remote LCD screen readjusts
itself for controlling myth. I like the simplicity of having 1 remote
and RF wasnt going to do that for me unless I spent more then I was
willing to pay on an overpriced RF keyboard. <br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 3/9/06, <b class="gmail_sendername">Michael T. Dean</b> <<a href="mailto:mtdean@thirdcontact.com">mtdean@thirdcontact.com</a>> wrote:
