That sounds like an excuse to me! Correct me if I am wrong, but to use LIRC, every single app you want to use already has to have added support for the LIRC client libraries. If they can support LIRC, then why not the Linux input layer? Let me reiterate: I'm not saying we shouldn't add settings for LIRC, I just think we shouldn't need to. Furthermore, LIRC is just one more program that the user has to set up, and it is not trivial. This debate could go on forever, so I will (try to) end it here and agree that someday, we will add LIRC support because MythTV has LIRC support. This assumes however, that the plugin is actually added. Have a nice day! -- Micah F.
