[mythtv-users] MythTV not recognizing F13 via ir-keytables

[Tom Dexter]

After my recent issues with lirc, I've been working with ir-keytables
using my existing TIVO34 remote. First I was using it with a new MCE
USB receiver. That worked, though it wouldn't recognize one key on the
remote for some reason. Worse yet, the responsiveness of it just
wasn't good enough to tolerate. I haven't mucked around with things
like delays etc to see if that helps. In any case, my old serial port
receiver actually works very well with ir-keytables, so I'm using that
for now.

One odd issue: I had a key on my remote setup to use the tilde
character (~) in mythtv (mythtv's .lircrc) which I had bound to toggle
VBI CC. Unfortunately, as far as I can see, ir-keytables has no way to
map to that key(?). If anyone knows otherwise, let me know.

I was just attempting to use F13. With the MythTV key bindings set to
F13, that works with LIRC, but not with rc-keytables. I've verified
with ir-keytable -t that the key is in fact getting picked up as
KEY_F13, and the key binding in MythTV is set corretly, but it just
doesn't work.

Any clues? Thanks!
