The universal can pretend to be just about any remote, but it seems to want to emulate VCR remotes for the VCR button, and so forth.   (I'm not 100% sure of that, it may just be that the manual lists VCR remotes for the VCR button, and a TV remote could be punched in there as well.)   In other words, we are in the situation where we can choose which remote lirc file to use, and then set the universal to emulate that.   Any thoughts on which would be the best button to reassign (VCR or DVD) and which remote we should choose to emulate?  


I use that remote with the Tape button for MythTV (because who
uses a cassette tape deck these days?) and set to emulate a JVC
DVD player. Anything which uses all the buttons is a good
choice; DVD players usually do.
