Is it possible to add features to the remote control. From my basic usage so far and my experience as a ReplayTV subscriber this is what I feel I would want my remote to do.

1. Scan - both forward and backwards at 1x, 2x, 5x, 10x, 20x, etc.

2. Program guide - simple push of a button calls up the guide, plus whenever I select a channel it wants to record it. Can I just tune to the channel?

3. Browse - one push of a button and I am in browse mode.

4. Stop - When recording a push of a button to get it to stop recording

5. Slow Motion - Anyway to see something in slow motion?

I am sure all of these features are probably there and I just can't access them right now with my remote. I have a PVR-250 with the Hauppauge remote. I am sure I have a lot to learn to unleash the power of Myth but so far I like it much better then the windows alternatives.

I'd say it all depends on how many buttons your remote has....

you would need to look for the keys.txt file to see if the functions you want are available, then you would need to edit your /home/mythtv/.mythtv/lircrc file appropriately, I think it should be obvious what to do once you open that file and look at what it's doing.

might want to look into the ATi Remote Wonder, lots more buttons, and its RF and not Infrared

I had thought about that but went with hauppauge instead.

does this card work with MythTV?

not sure about that card, haven't seen it before. That would be a question for the ivtv mailing list.

It is MCE compatible and is the first ATI card with a hardware encoder on it.

So? That has nothing to do with Linux. My recommendations is simply...Avoid ATi(with the exception of the remote).
