I've never had to use learning mode, the codes are available for anything I 
have encountered.

All I can find in a quick search is a reference to someone having beta code 
for the learning mode.

William Munson, the author of the perl script, used to hang out on this list, 
not sure if he is still here.

William made reference to the site of the "author of the learning mode 
changes" here:

http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/mythtv/users/321138?do=post_view_threaded

Looks like Stealthboy.com (Michael Sherman) was the author, but I don't find 
anything relevant on that site, except he does list Myth as an interest.

After all, the product has been discontinued, so I wouldn't be surprised if 
the effort was abandoned.
