Quick test to prove that - try with TVBGone (program for N900), and be sure that You're reasonably close, aiming as You should etc. I have yet to see any TV, that doesn't "die" due to TVBGone

BTW, as mentioned program is quite old, also doesn't use LIRC, and probably could use some new disable/standby codes - Copernicus, what do You think about updating that one too? It seems, that it's code is quite simple, and for someone already experienced in developing Ir application, updating code database *should* be trivial, as it seems.
