No, you *do not* need to use LIRC with MythTV. I control MythTV, Xine,
Mplayer and Xmame with a remote without using LIRC.

The problem, you're experiencing is that the keypresses are reported as
such from the input subsystem, the X server sees them as keyboard input
and passes them to the program. At the same time, LIRC passes the events
as IR events to the same program....ergo, two actions for one keypress.

The solution is simple, get rid of LIRC

Oh, and your email address bounces...
