Here is the output from irw when pressing up, left, down, right, 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, 6, 7, 8, 9:

000000037ff07be1 00 Up mceusb
000000037ff07bdf 00 Left mceusb
000000037ff07be0 00 Down mceusb
000000037ff07be0 01 Down mceusb
000000037ff07bde 00 Right mceusb
000000037ff07bfe 00 One mceusb
000000037ff07bfd 00 Two mceusb
000000037ff07bfc 00 Three mceusb
000000037ff07bfb 00 Four mceusb
000000037ff07bfa 00 Five mceusb
000000037ff07bf9 00 Six mceusb
000000037ff07bf8 00 Seven mceusb
000000037ff07bf8 01 Seven mceusb
000000037ff07bf7 00 Eight mceusb
000000037ff07bf6 00 Nine mceusb
000000037ff07bf6 01 Nine mceusb

Does this make sense with what is in the lircrc?
