I have been testing out the various ways of using my Nexus-S grey remote with LIRC and InputLIRC. The only way I can get either LIRC application to work is if I load the remote keymap after loading the dvb drivers with av_loadkeys. But, there seems to be a problem with learning the keys after loading any keymaps. After I train the remote with all the keys I want to use, I try to save the settings to remote.conf and the VDR just stops and crashes. Is anyone else having trouble learning the remote with vdr-1.4.0? I am using remote-0.3.7. The keys are responding, but the problem seems to be after I train the remote keys and goto save it.
Best Regards.

The problem with VDR crashing was due to the remote plugin trying to load a pre-defined remote control keymap after I had already loaded a keymap before starting vdr (hauppauge_grey.rc5). If I dont try to load the remote plugins' pre-defined keymap after manually loading a keymap, then VDR will not crash. I still can not figure out how to get VDR to train the remote keys using inputlirc though (it works with regular LIRC, but not inputlirc).
Thanks!
