One the remote you liked to, the coloured buttons are far away from the arrow buttons, so it can't really be nice to handle? I find that the old grey hauppauge remote has the perfect arrow key / coloured key layout, but it doesn't have any programmable volume and channel keys. http://www.ixbt.com/monitor/images/hauppauge-mediamvp/du.jpg The other advanced remote that seems to have the right button setup is the harmony 900, but it also has more direct buttons that I normally use. -- -Tor _______________________________________________ vdr mailing list vdr@xxxxxxxxxxx http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vdr
