Hi,

 me and a good friend are trying to get an Microsoft remote working with mythtv.
 testing with 'irw' works, the keys are recognised, so we got some
movement there :)

 It all looks like the config file for using with myth (or other
programs like xine, mplayer) is not being used or not properly setup
is this common? or are we missing something?
its not clear where the configfile ( lircrc  or .lircrc ? ) should be located.
after google-ing around we pretty stuck.

 MCE windows media center remote (new version) RC6 (its actual an Philips)
 using lirc 0.8.0 (compiled source)
 mythtv 0.19 (ubuntu package)

Howto we did use (among others) :

Configfile: http://geekstuff.no-ip.com/mythtv/lircrc
