Found a bug in the filtering algorithm on the 'Select Keyset' screen:
Select 'Make' -> Panasonic
Look at all the 'TV' keysets
Select 'Device' -> TV
Only 'Panasonic TV Keyset 1b' shown
I haven't checked that all other 'Devices' filter out correctly on all 'Makes' but there might be other bugs like that. I think it might even be possible that some keysets are missing if you filter only by 'Make'.
e.g. Acer - Tv - no tv keyset but it is there etc etc etc .. it can be repeated with every manufacturer name or by selecting device before manufacturer.

Dear Copernicus,
I was wondering if you´d have any opinions on this:
http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=82346
I´m looking for something to be working on Pioneer devices (AVR/BDP),
do you think there´s any chance to make this?
Thanks a lot

I've gotta admit, though, that I'm finding I really do prefer IR to bluetooth. IR uses a lot less power, is extremely easy to work with, and is compatible with an enormous range of devices. (Including Pioneer.) I suppose if you've got an N9 and not an N900, though, this isn't something you want to hear...

thanks for that...
the thing is that a WiFi remote control could almost completely replace traditional IR remotes íncluded with the AV devices...
since all newer AV devices are connected to network for Internet radio streaming, DLNA, web browsing, BD Live...
shame is that iOS is hugely supported in this, you can have a decent WiFi remotes for Pioneer, Denon, Marantz, Onkyo, NAD, even Bang and Olufsen + almost all most-commercial brands like Sony, Samsung, LG, Panasonics....and the apps look nice, work good and are constantly updated...and the AV brands strongly support using these apps as a replacement of traditional remotes...they advertise it everytime at specs with respective product...

iOS devices are so widespread today that it is cost-effective to make them a remote control mechanism for many devices. But they aren't widespread enough to make them the primary remote control mechanism. At least not yet. IR will continue to be around for quite a while to come (unless they start giving away bluetooth dongles with every purchase -- I could see that happening).

Yep, very true...
the damn AV brands should put ALL the existing mobile OS on the table and release one app working for all...iOS, Droid, WP, Symbian, Bada, Linux-based OS...and that´d pretty much cover every possible market in the world, since global assumption is that the person who buys such AV device probably has a mobile phone, too...or at least there´s a chance...
then they could simply include the original remote only upon requests...

Thanks for the update again.
Will report back on Virgin Media and Sky+ HD when I get to test them.
How's the Sony issue going?
If it helps (probably not) I haven't got a keyset to work with a Sony amp yet. Haven't got Model Number to hand but can get it.

I probably shouldn't even have that filter in there until more device data is available. (I could also just claim that all the Panasonic TV keysets support Panasonic TVs, but I'd prefer not to make that claim until I've received confirmation that the keysets work on at least one TV. The data I'm using to create keysets in Pierogi is not necessarily trustworthy in all cases...)
