Same problem here. Anyways, housemates are mowning that the Cinergy 600 IR 
remote is difficult to use. So any recommendation for an RF or IR remote 
available in Europe would be welcome :-)

I found out by accident that 9 and 3 map for PgUp/PgDn in MythTV 0.14 (in some 
places at least), haven't tried looking it up in keys.txt, but at least can't 
remember seeing it there.

Well, the MythMusic (0.14) menu feels rather sluggish...
But this can also be related to slow repeat speed of my remote.
