One would think the IP control in Myth would be easy to use but unfortunately its complex and over my head to write a driver.<br>

What I could do is use RS232. My idea is to have my controller send RS232 commands to my HTPC. And then in Linux somehow map those command strings to keyboard keys. <br><br>Does anyone have any advice on mapping RS232 commands to a keyboard press? Is it possible?<br>

There's an app called iRule for Android (and iOS) that does RS232 commands to your RTI box (via a Global Cache device) and can do telnet commands to MythTV (this is how Myth accepts remote commands). </div>
