You could turn on debugging for IR and see if slimserver picks up any
IR codes from your remote control.

(server settings/debugging/d_ir then look for the link on 'here' where
it says you can view the most recent log entries here)

Once you've got a code that slimserver sees but doesn't respond to
(0623 or whatever) then you could determine the IR code value for each
button 

Then you could create your own onkyo.ir which maps these onto
slimserver functions

So if you press a button on your remote you might see in the log when
you refresh the page something like

2006-02-01 20:14:51.0360 IR: be417a85 -> unknown

where be417a85 is the IR code that is seen but not acted upon.

In your onkyo.ir, if you wanted to map this to the down arrow you would
have a line

arrow_down = be417a85

You would need to choose a setup code for your  onkyo that sends
signals for all the buttons you might want to map.  Thats why DVD is
used since it should use the most buttons

For the basic function names use slim_devices_remote.ir as an example
(in the IR subdirectory)
