Hi,

I have a Pinnacle PC TV+ card [and the remote that came with it] which
installed well in Linux and worked fine too. I am getting greedy now
thinking about using the same remote with help of probably lirc and
mplayer while watching movies...

Please anwere the following - those who have used remote controllers with
their PCs.

1.	Is it possible for lirc to use the remote for purposes other than
	just the TV card? I suspect it should be possible for a daemon to
	talk to applications [like my home compiled mplayer] which were
	compiled with lirc support.

2.	The files provided with lirc on my Linux system seem up to date. I
	do seem to have a file which matches the remote/TVcard version and
	I am supposed to use that file as a configfile. Has anyone used
	this Pinnacle card before?

Hoping for replies about this...
