I am the maintainer of the Mythbuntu-Lirc-Generator that creates these
functions. I also use the same remote. However due to the nature of the
remote function a universal mapping for ALL buttons on ALL remotes is not
feasible. Although this is the case I am working on a GUI to provide easy
user support to add button mappings to ALL remotes beyond the current
config.
