In case anyone is interested I tried out the "Flag" remote
from Radio Shack. It supports a good set of RC-5 codes
using the 0081 VCR code. Pros and Cons listed below:
Pros:
Only costs $5 (!)
Sends a fairly complete set of RC-5 codes
Shouldn't be hard to find. My RS had dozens of 'em
Supports 4 devices and seems to handle TV/Myth well
Cons:
Buttons kind of small
No Replay/Skip buttons
PIP buttons don't send codes in 0081 emulation
I tried this out using my serial IR receiver. I will try
it with the built in PVR-250 receiver to make sure
that the RC-5 codes being sent can be received.
If I have any problems I'll post again. If I don't post
by tonight assume that the PVR-250 reads the codes
OK.
If anyone is interested in my lircd.conf and Myth
lircrc setup let me know and I can post them.
