If this works you would use the regular TV/Video remote which usually
has a marked up pause/play/skip buttons.
The TV receives those commands and translates them to CEC equivalent to
relay to the correct device (in this case the RPi).
That is the theory ... not even getting the commands in yet.
The TV does not know how to interpret remote signals from a regular
Squeezebox remote.
