I think if you want to do that sort of thing, you're better off using
LIRC's event driver.

You could also avoid the problem entirely by binding more than one key
to those functions in MythTV.  (e.g. putting both '>' and
KEY_FASTFORWARD in your MythTV configuration for the same action, then
using KEY_FASTFORWARD in your ir key table.)
