ignasiak - MythRemote

MythRemote uses the TCP socket control interface added in MythTV 0.19 to allow full control of a MythTV frontend via a network connection. This can be used instead of an infrared remote, or as a supplement to access commands not mapped on your remote.

Feature Overview:

Most common commands are available as buttons on the GUI, all valid commands are available via keyboard input.
MythTV button is configurable in Preferences, can jump to recorded programs, live tv, etc.
Can be set to auto-connect on startup, via Preferences panel.

What's New:

Remapped Delete key to Backspace. Delete was not a valid input in Myth frontend versions 0.19 and 0.20.
Added many new keyboard inputs, which were added for Myth frontend version 0.21.
