9 Unfortunately, for several years, there was no effort to create uniform
10 IR keycodes for different devices. This caused the same IR keyname to be
11 mapped completely differently on different IR devices. This resulted
12 that the same IR keyname to be mapped completely different on different
13 IR's. Due to that, V4L2 API now specifies a standard for mapping Media
14 keys on IR.
15
16 This standard should be used by both V4L/DVB drivers and userspace
17 applications
18
19 The modules register the remote as keyboard within the linux input
20 layer. This means that the IR key strokes will look like normal keyboard
21 key strokes (if CONFIG_INPUT_KEYBOARD is enabled). Using the event
22 devices (CONFIG_INPUT_EVDEV) it is possible for applications to access
23 the remote via /dev/input/event devices.
