There are not *so* many remote controls out there. That's not true, unless you just count the remotes that come packaged with the TV cards. But you might be able to buy all-in-one type remote controls which work with the TV card's IR receiver (it's also possible to connect a different IR-sensor to the TV card's IR input). It would be nice to be able to configure the keys then. drivers/media/dvb/ttpci/av7110_ir.c does it this way (default map for Hauppauge, loadable keymaps in linuxtv.org CVS).
