As for getting the codes into Pierogi, I haven't yet spent the time to create a config file mechanism for the program. I was originally going to use the LIRC file format, but I don't think it would work for my purposes any more... I'll need some time to come up with something.

But the Pierogi source code is available, if you'd like to try a hand at it yourself. And I'm certainly willing to work on importing any new codes you send me...

i have searched all over the internet to do so
i have the ability to work on both linux and windows
so after reading most of the post on the internet
here what it said :
i must have an ir receiver ( i do have 2 but i dont know they are compatible or not)
i must install winLIRC ( done)
then i have to record my own remote signals
to come out finally with a ".cf" file which i dont know it do work with your program or not

thanks again

Another Pierogi update is on its way up to extras-devel. This one is just to fix a couple of GUI issues, in particular the issue described by sombragris and explained by sixwheeledbeast. Thanks!

When you got time, adding NAD in the compatible devices would be nice.

"Yeah, that's the big problem -- I was only able to find keysets for a DVD and for a set-top box, not for a TV. There just aren't a lot of United config files to be found... "

Thanks Colin ... too bad ...

I can see a handful of NAD config files, I'll add them to my list!

Actually, Pierogi doesn't yet read any config files; all the keyset data is stored internally, and I'm just entering it by hand. (It isn't hard to do, a config file is just a list of maybe twenty buttons each having a name and a couple of integer values.)

I will try to support one or more of the config file formats at some point in the future...
