Post subject:  Fix Left click from remote in flash content in mythbrowser

Hi,

I'm running Mythtv 0.23, but since 0.22 clicking on flash content using the remote control (button 5) would have no effect. I was rather disappointed as mythbrowser would provided a very neat solution to access the catch-up service offered by many broadcasters.

Firstly, I'd like to take this opportunity to state how much i love linux.

I added the following section to my lircrc file (/home/mythtv/.lircrc)
Code:
begin
    prog = irexec
    button = 5
    config = xdotool click 1
end

This emulates a mouse click of the left button (option 1). I also removed the key binding for mouse click in the browser section of the key binding config.

xdotool was already on my system, but if you don't have it then it is in the xdotool package.

irexec is started automatically in the script that starts the mythfrontend.

I hope you enjoy this as much as i did.

BigB.
