Infrared Remote Buttons Understood by LinuxMCE
Support for most infrared remotes can be added to LinuxMCE. When support for a remote is added, each button is mapped to a message that is sent to LinuxMCE. While almost any remote button can be programmed to be recognized by LinuxMCE, the function of those buttons can only be mapped to one of the names that LinuxMCE understands.
The List of Buttons
This list of buttons was extracted from LinuxMCE 0710RC1. The names to the left of the | are aliases for the same function. When support for an infrared remote is added, each button is mapped to one of those names. There are different sections for different contexts. The sections provide a glimpse into how the function of a button changes depending on the context.
