I looked at Microsoft_Xbox360 remote, and it seems like it could work with a bit of configuration, which may be tricky to do. Basically you would need to match the commands bound to each button to correct command in lircd.conf. You can configure the commands bound to buttons in advanced settings dialog.

That said, the remote database is currently very much work in progress, and we are excepting to create something more userfriendly. Currently we use remote database from LIRC but it is way too messy to be used in a plug'n'play fashion.

We could either begin cleaning it up, but it requires a lot of manual work, so we'd prefer not to (there are over 3000 remotes currently, and we would need to go through each one and make it uniform with the others). Other option could be starting from a clean slate and begin collecting our own database based on user submissions. That would require some code to support a way to submit remotes etc, and an active userbase.
