I am not understanding lirc and some things. Perhaps someone can clarify.

I have a PVR150 with a working stock remote.
I want to use an all in one remote or some other programable remote.

Now what I dont get:

The IR Receiver should be able to use any remote that is IR right?

When I have a generic remote, what should I set it to for a device?  Eg. VCR-Philips or what?  

Does an IR receiver pick up any IR device remote then just use the correct device lircd.conf?

How can I just take an all in one remote, press each key, record its value in lircd.conf and then set that in .lircd for a user?  irrecord does pick up some buttons on the remote, but not all.  

Clarification and howto's appreciated.
