Post subject:  WebTV IR Keyboard

Laying around in some old parts I found a MWK122BK Philips Magnavox WebTV IR Keyboard. Is there any chance in getting this working for MythTV? I'm using the IR port in my PVR-250, but I also have an onboard USB IR port.

If no one's done this yet, would I have to map each key to it's IR code by hand? If so, how could I could I go about finding out what each key sends out?

I found the irrecord and got it working so that I can hold down keys on the remote and it will continue, but holding down a key on the keyboard does nothing. :(

The "IR port" on the PVR uses a specific protocol (JP-6 if I remember correctly). So, the IR device (keyboard) in the case must use that same protocol. I've no idea what the webtv keyboards uses. Google is your friend.
