After some research, I figured out that there seems to have been a change in the /home/user/.lirc/mythtv file. It seems some of the buttons changed. My old one had things like, button = Up the new one is like...

I'm looking for an inexpensive IR receiver to use with my Logitech Harmony 600 remote. Did this remove and receiver work with MythTV? If so how did you configure it in MythTV?

Thanks,

Re: SiliconDust HDHomerun HDHR-T1-US $69.99 free ship
