you'll only be able to use the buttons / that are the same as those on the remote that you already have. / I looked into / if there's any way you can map remote control buttons to other functions, but IIRC their functions are hardcoded into the system.

and

if the hardware does not have the functionality built-into the firmware / it cannot be added

yeah but

playing around with some of the remotes I had / Other buttons do random things' date=' like [i']open the selected disk on the desktop, or close the currently open window.[/i]

which is weird, so :?: :?:
Another thought: track down an IR ADB remote keyboard and a copy of QuicKeys.
