Perhaps comment about this should be added to input.h?

I still miss few descriptions... On avermedia remote control there are buttons labeled as "preview", "autoscan", "freeze", "capture" and few keys without label (5 of them :-(). I mapped that somehow, but it might not be ideal:
case 0xc577c0: return KEY_EJECTCD; /* Unmarked on my controller */ case 0xd77c0: return KEY_INFO; /* preview */ case 0xad77c0: return KEY_SEARCH; /* autoscan */ case 0x6d77c0: return KEY_BREAK; /* freeze */ case 0xed77c0: return KEY_PVR; /* capture */ Pavel -- When do you have a heart between your knees?
