Hi guys,
I'm new on the list and have built a MythTV Box in a Hiper case too.
Unfortunately that's my main MythTV box, therefore I'm not quite willing
to experment with it too much.

Great! I might add more scratches there as well, after I'll get
something to scratch about.

I thought reverse engineer it as well. What I planned was to install
Microsoft Media Center over VMWare and assign the USB port and install
the drivers in to the Media Center. After that, all the traffic should
be easily monitored as they probably are all be HID messages. But again,
that's only in the planning stage and has quite a lot assumptions.

Heikki
