</div></div>6 buttons with myth is just not enough.<br>

The Apple remote can actually produce 255 * 6 discrete IR signals...<br>
What I did was to learn lots of signals using the Apple remote on my<br>
logitech universal one, and control mythtv that way with a appropriate<br>
lirc configuration<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Hi, how did you teach the universal remote the extra IR signals?? I know I can obviously press the 6 buttons on the mini remote, but how do I generate the rest?? Thanks.</div>
