Don't know. If you really have the right permissions on lircrc (i.e., 
your mythtv user can actually read it) and all the button names match 
up with the button names in lircd.conf, it should work. I haven't a 
clue what else could be going wrong, most people don't have this much 
trouble. Feel free to include a copy of the output from "ls -l 
/home/<mythtvuser>/.mythtv/lircrc" (changing <mythtvuser> to whatever 
your Myth user is. You might also include your lircd.conf and lircrc 
contents. Perhaps you're missing something that someone else will 
notice.
