Excellent, will try it out tomorrow.

I had almost given up on this. How did you avoid getting SIGSEGV's when
calling the QApplication::postEvent's?

My system here would consistently give me segfaults - even when using
only native lirc - on certain keys. Pausing, ffwd, rewind would work,
but changing channels, bringing up OSD, etc would bork.
