[mythtv-users] MythTV on AppleTV

How do I map buttons in mythtv with the remote anyway? I know how to do it with the keyboard but I need to change a few buttons on my remote. For example I'd like to use "exit" to go back in stead of "stop"

$25 or less. Includes the IR transmitter/receiver, IR remote and two IR bugs.
