</div>Probably not. Almost all Motorola boxes use pretty much the same<br>
codes, only minor differences here and there, so far as I've seen.<br>

</div>I'd forgot about reports of sluggishness w/the hdpvr receiver. Hrm.<br>
Something I'll have to look at shortly. You could certainly take a<br>
crack at running dual lircd instances with both lirc_zilog and<br>
lirc_i2c loaded up. I hope to improve lirc_zilog Real Soon Now though.<br>
