please take a look at the keyset of Majestic devices (TV and DVB).
They seem to produce some very specialized devices; there probably just haven't been enough users interested in controlling them to create and post config files...

Thank you, THANK YOU SIR! YOU HAVE MY RESPECT FOREVER.
I saw a weird warning on my N900 just about 2 mins ago, clicked on it and it was a software update and ... my hope came true, PIEROGI UPDATE. Installed it, went to the keysets, see new Benq Keysets, select Benq Projector Keyset 1, go near the projector, pressed the power button and VOILA, BenQ logo on the wall. The source button works, so I can select the input. Mute button is for the "Blank" option and the only button I couldn't find is the settings button... BUT I DON'T NEED IT, I set it up once, and the rest of the settings are on Auto. THANK YOU DEAR USER!!! <3
Also are there on the internet any IR codes for those remote controlled parking blockers (i don't really know how they are called) but here are some pictures for what I want the IR Codes implemented in pierogi:
Also, I saw that for those remotes, you can make copies from the original, so you have to implement the IR Codes. How can I make my tablet pc learn those codes (write a lirc file) and give them to you so you can implement it?
My tablet has an internal IrDA leds, and quite a great range, so i could somehow hide it near the gate sensor and get those codes? Having those codes on my N900 could mean premium, parking spot @ my college, no more fear of my car getting hit and run and stuff like that.

Glad to hear that the BenQ works! I was kind of worried I'd be able to find a good config file after seeing just how many different / incompatible remote controls BenQ has created... 
The config file I used for keyset one didn't have a command labeled "settings", but it did have one labeled "auto" that I didn't know how to map. Can you tell me if your remote had an "auto" button, and if so, what did it do?
BTW, I've mapped the "keystone up" and "keystone down" keys to the green and red buttons on the utility panel. Also, keyset 1a has a few more buttons (mostly input selector buttons), but I don't know if they will be compatible with your projector...
Hmm, I've absolutely no clue. I can tell you that IrDA is not designed to work at the same signal strength and frequencies as "Consumer IR", although there are ways to get around that. But I guess the first question is whether those parking blockers are even working with CIR signals?
EDIT: looking up "Nice Flor-s" in Google, I'm only coming up with radio frequency controls. I'm thinking they are not using infrared at all...
EDIT 2: Oh, BTW, I do have the "menu" key mapped, if that's what you meant by "settings". You can find that on the "menu" panel...

We have: Up, down, left, right, keystone+, keystone-, vol+, vol-, menu, mode, enter, exit, source, blank and power.
The input selector allready works! Utility > Input button, then select using Menu>Up/Down and Select
I don't know how that remote works, but it's still Infrared. I have one of those @ home but it's broken and I don't think I can make it work again, but I'll try. How to read and learn the commands?

EDIT: Ah, the BenQ has volume controls? Drat, the config file for keysets 1 and 1a didn't have any volume controls listed.

In my projector goes only the VGA form the computer and Video RCA form the DVB and the audio from laptop/dvb goes into my mixer and so on...

Well, about half of the codes I'm using have been read into a PC using the LIRC server. It takes a bit of effort to figure out how to set it up, but it can recognize pretty much any codes sent using CIR frequencies. There are some packages to make the server easier to use, such as the Windows-based WinLIRC project...

Now, can yo tell me what I need to do to try to map some commands for a test and then test the remote I have to see it uses CIR commands or not? I would love to test that...

There are also a wide variety of LIRC front-ends, tools, and ports to every operating system imaginable. (And yeah, you can find LIRC on the N900 and on Android, though I don't think there are currently any cell-phone-sized devices with CIR receivers.)
I can't really give you a one-size-fits-all approach to choosing and setting up an LIRC package, as it really depends on you as to what you want to use it on and how you want to use it. But here's a link to some of the LIRC software available:

Thank you for the latest update, Copernicus. I tested the new Mitsubishi projector keyset and it still doesn't work with my HC 1500 projector.
I was looking for IR codes for the HC 1500 and didn't come up with much though. I'll have to hit some other search engines and use different search approaches. Hopefully I have some useful data soon.

I can confirm, that my Samsung TV sets are fully operateable with the new Samsung TV 2 keyset. Except previous channel feature, but that's not a problem.
Also my neighbour has a NEO TV. But I don't have any IR receiver for PC...
I there anything on the internet for GABA TV's? My older Thomson could find a proper keyset. And that's my TV for Playstation 1, and I never had a Remote control for it. But it has enough buttons on the device to fully operate it.
Thanks for helping with the Samsung keyset! (don't forget Thomson air conditioner update, just include files, no need to configure, if it doesn't work I don't blame you, but it's worth to try)
