The note 2 applies to most of these function buttons. It says:
"2 During a recording or timed recording, a device may ask the user
for confirmation of this action before executing it."

The note 1 says that they can be issued without the additional operand
specified:
"1 Functions with additional operands may also be used without the
additional operand: in this case the behavior is manufacturer-specific."

Will this do?
	{ 0x60, KEY_PLAY },
	{ 0x6024, KEY_PLAY },
 	{ 0x6020, KEY_PLAY_REVERSE }, // to be created
Or will the framework get confused that an incomplete key code was
received?

Another question I have is about the following operations:
0x67 Tune Function
0x68 Select Media Function
0x69 Select A/V Input Function
0x6a Select Audio Input Function
These operations take an additional operand that is large number.
1-255 for 0x68-0x6a or even a more complex operand such as the channel
number for 0x67.

Any suggestion on how to implement these correctly?
