I'm currently using my Panasonic TV remote to control my XBMC HTPC via a flirc dongle and it's almost perfect.
The only issue I have is that the HTPC is functioning as a ghetto NAS and running SABnzbd so it's (almost) always on. This is problematic when I just want to watch TV and I'm controlling XBMC in the background.
So my question is, can I somehow bind a key, any key on the keyboard (flirc lets me do this), to disable all other inputs until I press the key again?
