Looks like the new remote from reelmedia is specially made for VDR, with all labels corresponding to the correct keys. It would certainly yield a better WAF for the VDR box. Says programmable, but does any insiders know if can be programmed to control volume and on/off for a TV, without any 'mode change'?
Seems to be a bit steep at €49 at their website though: http://www.reel-multimedia.com/de/shop_zubehoer_tastatur.php

For that price it better come with one! It also better be a high quality remote and not some cheap plastic chinese production at that price.

hi,
i never had one in hand but remember things from reelbox forum and vdrportal
it doesnt come with a ir receiver, the reelbox receiver is integrated in the frontpanel (/dev/input/rbfp0) and has a special firmware that includes code for ir (available as spare part from rmm as part of the case kit, 109€) they also have a special remote vdr plugin (source in the rmm svn)
afaik the preselected layout for the reelbox is not rc5 (at least not entirely, i remember something about pronto codes) but the remote will be programmable and its a universal remote with the usual preprogrammed devices http://www.reel-multimedia.com/de/dokumente/anleitungen/ReelBox_Series_Kurza...
about the new one i have no further info's except what rmm has published but i wold expect the same preselected layout as the old one has http://www.reel-multimedia.com/de/dokumente/anleitungen/ReelBox-RC-Slimline....
