I use this keyboard on the Myth boxes as well and it is very handy to have a keyboard now and then... normally in a drawer, but beats having to deal with cables, etc. when you need it. for the price, you can easily disassemble and "mount" the receiver internally. IMHO. Mike

And better than that, since it's IR, a learning remote should be able to "learn" the keypresses you want it to. "P" for pause and all that. That also eliminates lirc. Then you would just have to figure out how to take the bulky receiver and route it inside the case like you want. It should be the easy way out, although I have not yet tried this myself. Again, I'm not sure what vendors you have available to you in the UK, but hopefully somewhere somebody would have this for �12 or less. -Shane ----- Original Message ----- From: Richard Holroyd <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, February 02, 2005 9:48 AM Subject: [mythtv-users] Internal IR Receiver Has anyone implemented an internal infra red receiver for use with lirc? I want to have a unit internally housed in my myth box, modifying the front of the case to allow the signal through. Anyone achieved this or know of a site with some information on parts required? I'm in the UK, so I guess maplins will be a source of parts for such a venture.
