I don't think so, but it's only 30 seconds to do the learning

Mmh, strange, delete remote.conf and try again.

As you didn't compile with NO_KBD=1 it supports keyboard.

You cannot control VDR in teaching mode. It only wants to setup it's
controls as it is quite useless to controll something without a
input-device (which you just are teaching)

It's also not clear for VDR why it should display "continue" ;o) The
only reason I can remind is when  you try to use the same key for more
than one command.

Why? That will only confuse normal users. If you want to reteach delete remote.conf.
