-- SNIP -- I use one remote for both, I toggle with one button between 3 modes. mode 1 vdr-sxfe on Plasma TV and graphttft-fe on TFT in case mode 2 xbmc on Plasma TV and graphttft-fe on TFT in case mode 3 nothing on Plasma TV and xbmc on TFT in case
I think you use a .lirc configuration in combination with irexec to switch?
I start vdr with --lirc=/dev/null so that it doesn't react on the remote. Vdr-sxfe ist started with --lirc. Vdr-sxfe is never started the same time that xmbc is running, so I can use the same remote for both.
This is indeed something I was looking for. Forgot that some options are extremely easy to resolve. But I was wondering, what remote do you use yourself and did you configure a .lircrc for vdr-sxfe?
I want to use this configuration for my new HTPC (completely software based output) which will use Xine for VDR viewing (vdr-sxfe is somewhat unstable on my configuration). And the phrase " One Remote to rule them all" would be great :)
