I found it to work reasonably well, but remotes support is quite limited.

but seriously speaking, we need major irreco interface improvement and database expansion to make it customer-ready, not a geek toy.

In my case I have to switch on bluetooth to let it emit IR.
(verified using the camera trick some posted one one of these forums: point your n900 IT transmitter into a camera lens...)
But still I cannot get it to control my TV

Hi, I would like to install test and use qtirreco. I just failed to find where to get the catalogues for the progmanager from, actually. Who can help, thanks.
So go to application manager, then click menu and application catalogs, enable Maemo Extras, add new catalog:
Catalog name: Maemo extras-devel (for example)
Web address: http://repository.maemo.org/extras-devel/
Distribution: fremantle
Components: free non-free
Then update the catalogs, go to download section and search for qtirreco software and install it.

Strange...It downloads remote commands for other remotes but will not pull the one I need (sony RM-PP402) any ideas?
, which will probably be out today.

My panasonic plasma requires me to hold Power down for about a second or so. Irreco can't seem to be able to do this? I tried queuing commands to no avail.
Also, re-adding the same command several times seems like a lot of work?
--
Oh, and, all images I download from themes are now visible in the images application? It's unusable. Any suggestions? Maybe a .folder for storage of images?

We've noticed that image thing too and it's a thing worth considering.

Yes, it does, but there's a lag between the commands.
E.g., when holding the volume on the app, the LED on the TV goes blip__blip__blip. When using the native remote, it goes blipblipblip (about twice as fast). The TV doesn't budge the power unless someone holds a button.
I need to hold the red button for the power to go off and hold 0-9, power, TV, AV or so to get it to power up.
Also, the app lags, as in, holding the volume for 2 seconds actually increases the volume for 3 or so, overshooting the intended volume. It seems to queue commands faster than sending them out.

Edit: Sorry, missed the part where people know and consider the bug.

It is still a big issue with the images of the remotes in the pictures app. Can't you store them somewhere else, where they aren't indexed? A theme has 15 or so buttons, that's 30 images plus backgrounds. My images app is unusable. Add two themes plus irreco (versus qtirreco) and it's lost to me.
Any ideas? Different folder? Hidden? /.themes ?
