Remote control via x2x
From MythTV Official Wiki
This short howto describes how to use x2x to control mythtv. It uses another PC to forward input to another X-Display. I'm using it with my laptop over wlan.
Introduction
x2x is a little program, that forwards the input of your local X11-desktop to another X-Display.
Installation
install x2x[1] to your PC running mythfrontend.
now run:
# ssh -X yourmythtvuser@yourmythbox -C "x2x -west -to :0"
on your PC intended to control mythtv. After logging in move your cursor to the left edge of your screen. Now you can use your arrow keys to use mythtv like you are using a local keyboard.
You can also use -east , -south and -north
