I wrote a SS plugin and a 'Lirc Junction box' script. The A/V signal is mixed with the TV cable signal that goes to all 4 TV's in the house, so that MythTV is just another channel. Every TV has a SB3 nearby. The closest I've come to documentation (from another post in this forum): The latest plugin is available here: http://a213-84-196-8.adsl.xs4all.nl/slim2lirc/Lirc.pm The 'Lirc junction box' application can be found here: http://a213-84-196-8.adsl.xs4all.nl/slim2lirc/lircjb You start the lircjb (from /etc/rc.local or manually) lircjb -l -p 12345 /dev/lircd & You copy the Lirc.pm plugin to the slimserver Plugin directory and restart slimserver. Lirc.pm will be sending IR codes it receives over UDP port 12345 to lircjb. At this time you should be able to run 'irw' and see the slimremote buttons you press being echoed. Note: Lirc.pm only captures and retransmits button presses when a SqueezeBox is off (standby) or when you've selected 'Lirc Remote' from the Plugin menu. Now you must edit the mythtv .lircrc file to tell mythtv what buttons to react to and what to do when they are pressed. Note that Lirc.pm only forwards codes it recognizes. At the moment that means the slimdevices remote, but the code mapping can be changed at the end of the Lirc.pm file.
