<div>Hika's response was correct, I was able to add Play/Pause
events via the MythTV settings. But, there were some
keypresses that I can see in ir-keytable, which didn't
generate a key event within MythTV.<br>

<div>After a bit more digging, I found that the basic key code
mappings are in /lib/udev/rc_keymaps/imon_pad</div>
<div>For some of the keys that MythTV was not picking up, I
re-mapped them to simple keyboard inputs. Since this
system only runs mythfrontend, that's not a problem. But,
it does seem kludgey to do it this way.. and I'm sure I'll
forget about it by the time I do my next frontend upgrade in
a couple years.</div>

<div>It seems like this was close to "just working" out of the
box. The USB device was auto-detected and the drivers
mapped the remote keys to reasonable settings. The gap was
that MythTV did not recognize the multimedia keys by
default. This seems odd. Isn't MythTV an extremely good
use case for those multimedia key inputs like "KEY_PAUSE"?
It also doesn't seem like there would be drawbacks to
mapping these by default. </div>

You can prevent the Media keys from launching default applications
using dconf or gsettings. <br>
<br>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;
charset=windows-1252">
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys next ''<br>
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys pause ''<br>
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys play ''<br>
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys previous
''<br>
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys stop ''<br>
<br>
Or use dconf editor to change the same mappings. Once that is done
you still need to map the key codes to suitable character codes
using ir-keytable or xmodmap.<br>
