+
+This plugin extends the remote control capabilities of vdr.
+The following remote control devices are supported:
+
+(a) linux input device driver ('/dev/input/eventX', X=0,1,2,...)
+    (currently not supported on FreeBSD)
+
+(b) keyboard (tty driver): /dev/console, /dev/ttyX
+
+(c) TCP connection (telnet)
+
+(d) LIRC
+
+(e) some(?) FreeBSD uhid(4) devices (experimental support added by this port)
+    To use, add something like this to vdr_flags: '-Premote -h /dev/uhid0',
+    (re)start vdr, then the osd should ask you to configure the
+    remote by pressing the buttons you want to assign.
+
+    Note:  If your remote is detected as a keyboard you'll have to
+    tell ukbd(4) to ignore it first by doing (as root) something like:
+
+	usbconfig add_dev_quirk_vplh 0x1241 0xe000 0 0xffff UQ_KBD_IGNORE
+
+    (and possibly unplug it for a moment or reset it via usbconfig,
+    0x1241 there is the vendor id, 0xe000 the product id of the
+    device, you can get yours by doing
+
+	usbconfig -d 1.2 dump_device_desc
+
+    and looking for idVendor and idProduct, -d 1.2 there corresponds
+    to ugen1.2 listed by usbconfig w/o args.)
+
+    You can check with:
+
+	usbconfig show_ifdrv
+
+    if the device is then listed as ugen...: uhid... you're good to go.
+
+    2nd note:  If vdr cannot open your uhid device check it is not claimed
+    by xorg:
+
+	fstat |grep uhid
+
+    If it is you may need an xorg.conf(5) with manually defined
+    InputDevice sections for mouse and keyboard and
+
+	Option		"AutoAddDevices" "False"
+
+    in the ServerFlags section.
+
+    And if for some reason you want to reassign the buttons on the
+    remote you can stop vdr and do:
+
+	touch /usr/local/etc/vdr/channels.conf
+
+    and/or remove uhid entries from
+
+	/usr/local/etc/vdr/remote.conf .
+
+    When you then start vdr again it should ask to configure the
+    remote again.
