[mythtv-users] Mac Mini Remote Went Crazy

Hey All,
I'm not sure if this is the right list so please redirect me if necessary.
I recently installed Mythbuntu on my Mac Mini and everything went pretty
smoothly. I was able to get lirc working with the built in IR receiver
using the following command:
/usr/sbin/lircd --driver=macmini --device=/dev/usb/hiddev0
The Mac Mini remote seems to work well, however, whenever I use another
remote (e.g. the TV remote or the Receiver remote), lirc picks up that
signal and repeats whatever button was last pressed on the Mac Mini remote.
For example, if I hit play on the Mac Mini remote, Myth will start to play
my show. If I then hold volume up on my receiver remote, the receiver will
raise the volume but Myth will also pause then play then pause then play,
etc.
Is there any way to get lirc to ignore these signals that don't come from
the Mac Mini remote?
I tried using irrecord to create a lircd.conf file for the receiver remote,
but it looks like it's coming up all 0s (see below).
Thanks for your help!
Doug
