[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 14506"] [b]IR Keyboard and JP1 remote[/b] I have found the best solution for me is to use an IR Keyboard, and then use a JP1 ([url]http://www.hifi-remote.com/jp1/[/url]) programmable remote to program the remote to send the keyboard ir signals. You can then just use the MP keyboard shortcuts using a remote, and it is totally customizable. This is a solution that many mythtv users are using after some frustrating experiences with lirc. The keyboard I use is the lite-on SK-7551 [url]http://censuspc.com/cart/product.php?productid=1040&cat=0&page=1[/url]. This is probably your best option, as there is already a working jp1 protocol to use for this. The remote I use is the One For All URC-8910 remote. This has worked VERY well for me so far. PLus, you get a wireless keyboard out of the deal, and only need 1 IR receiver for the keyboard (renote sends its IR signals to the keyboard IR receiver). [/QUOTE]
