Some remote keys need configuring for ALL remotes

I am the maintainer of the Mythbuntu-Lirc-Generator that creates these
functions. I also use the same remote. However due to the nature of the
remote function a universal mapping for ALL buttons on ALL remotes is not
feasible. Although this is the case I am working on a GUI to provide easy
user support to add button mappings to ALL remotes beyond the current
config.

You can use this as a reference

Programming you own layout is very easy.

Just use irrecord

i.e irrecord -d /dev/lirc0 myremote

Please don't close unfixed bugs.

We really do appreciate you opening this ticket to help improve Mythbuntu, but it needs to be closed for a number of reasons. The biggest one is that upstream has moved on to a new version and believes this to be fixed. Could you please verify if this issue still exists in the latest version?

Please do not let the closing of this ticket dissuade you from opening a new ticket if this (or any other) problem occurs with the newer versions.
