With ir-keytable decoding all keys you should basically be able to do it
with or without LIRC. However, here is potential to run both tracks
simultaneously and that might certainly be a mess.
If you not use LIRC, just disable the comṕlete service so it doesn't
mess with anything. This means that the application will receive events
from a /dev/input/eventXX interface without any lirc involvement.
If you want to use lirc, use the devinput driver and the same event
interface as device. This will make the button presses available on the
lircd socket (var/run/lirc/lircd?) where multiple applications can read
it and map it using ~/.lircrc. Applications (here multiple) must not
access the event interface, they should listen to the lircd socket.
Cheers!
