Thanks for the advice Simon. I kind of nearly have this working now. Using xev I was able to see the key mapping for the remote. This seems pretty straightforward, ie. up=88, down=80, etc and then I thought I'd use mythweb to just map these numbers straight to the relevant action. Unfortunately no dice. I'll have to create the xmodmap file. Is there a particular syntax that Myth expects this file to be in? I've found an example file from a different remote that looks like this:check out this post http://mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3010&highlight=
I'm using KnoppMyth, but most of it should still follow. In addition to what I wrote in that post, I subsequently did end up modifying the ir_kbd_io.c file to map the keypresses to keys in the 0-255 range, which seemed to be the only ones that worked for xmodmap. Then used xmodmap to remap them to what I wanted to use them for. Most all of my remote keys now do something useful. I'm actually getting v-good reception in a bad blackspot from my DVB-T. I understand the older model wasn't so good. I'm in Aus. YMMV

I'm not sure why this file contains things like 'bar bar bar bar'. I mean, where does that come from?
Thanks for any pointers.
Kind regards Andy
