My wife is having difficulty adapting to MythTV (It's too complicated, she says.)<br><br>She is accustomed to using the DCT-6214 DVR from Cox Cable. <br><br>To make things really simple, I took the same remote to which she's accustomed and used it for MythTV. Via LIRC, I mapped each of the buttons on the DCT-6412 remote to perform the exact same function in MythTV.
<br><br>Her biggest complaint surrounds accessing the program guide. On the
DCT-6212, she simply pushed the "guide" button on the remote. I mapped the "Guide" button to the "M" key. According to the <a href="http://mythtv.org">mythtv.org</a> how-to document, this should invoke the Electronic Program Guide (EPG).
<br><br>Instead of seeing the EPG, a menu is displayed. The first item on the list is "Program Guide". So an extra push on the "Select" button is required. No problem for me; but this seems to be a show stopper for my wife.
<br><br>Is there any way to directly invoke the Program Guide without accessing the intermediary menu?<br><br>Please, please help. I've invested a lot of work and I have big aspirations to expand this throughout the house; but wife-support is a critical component.
