I don't know where to find this in English, so I did a quick and dirty
translation, hope it helps:

1) Stop VDR: 'killall vdr'

2) Extract Lirc-Files Version 0.6.5pre1 (I used the following paths:
/SatTV/LIRC, /SatTV/VDR, /SatTV/DVB you might have to change the
instructions below to adapt to your directories)

3) Start setup.sh in the Lirc directory. Choose '1-Driver', '4-TV Cards'
and then 'Hauppauge DVB-s Card'. Then save+run.

4) Follow the instructions that are displayed at the end. That is 'make'
and 'make install'

5) Copy the file from http://www.uni-mainz.de/~martin/lircd.conf into
/SatTV kopieren, make a copy named 'lirc_vdr_hauppauge.conf' and edit
this file. You have to rename the buttons to Left, Right, etc. (look at
/SatTV/DVB/config.c for the right names)

It depends on your remote which buttons you use. My file looks like this
(I use the original Hauppauge remote which is a bit limited):

      end codes

end remote

6) Edit the 'Makefile' in SatTV/DVB/driver/lirc and adjust the path of
Lirc, in my case '/SatTV/LIRC'

7) (Re-)Compile the DVB-Driver:
cd /SatTV/DVB/driver
make clean
make 
make rmmod
make insmod

8) Compile the DVB-Lirc-Module
cd /SatTV/DVB/driver/lirc
make clean
make 
make rmmod
make insmod

9) Just in case lircd is already started, kill it: killall lircd

10) Start the Lirc-Daemon with the edited version of lirc.conf:
/SatTV/LIRC/daemons/lircd /SatTV/lircd_vdr_hauppauge.conf

11) Test, whether it works: '/SatTV/LIRC/tools/irw'
If a button on the remote is pressed, a code should be displayed on the
screen.
Stop with Ctrl-C

12) Recompile VDR with the parameter REMOTE=LIRC

Impotant: Adjust the start-Scripts, to make the following happen:

'make insmod' for the DVB-driver (in my case in /SatTV/DVB/driver)
'make insmod' for the lirc-Module of the DVB-driver (in my case
/SatTV/DVB/driver/lirc)
'lircd /SatTV/lircd_vdr_hauppauge.conf' to start Lirc with our adjusted
Button-Configuration for VDR

13) Start VDR
