 I found some old HID IR Remote - https://www.delock.com/produkte/S_62442/merkmale.html and combined the usb dongle with a learnable universal control.

It was straight forward to use left, right, up, down, enter, back and escape which makes most of the kodi functions accessable, but I missed access to context menues - things you access hitting "i" and "o" on keyboard.

On the other hand, the functions keys which are discreatly mapped to IR-Codes on the delock remote.

The solution is a custom key map file that maps function keys to kodi functions - https://kodi.wiki/view/List_of_keynames 

 An example is https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/system/keymaps/keyboard.xml

To find out what remote key codes which keyboard key the cli tool "evtests" was great help.

Result is ~/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/keymaps.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<F2>Info</F2>
<F3>ContextMenu</F3>
<F4>PlayerProcessInfo</F4>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

Open DRM-Free Unencrypted DVB-T2 Tv and Radio in Austria

Most things in Austria terestical TV got encrypted since DVB-T got shut down, but there are still three TV channels and three Radio Channels unencrypted. I had some hard time to find out how to get it working using linux... and non existing documentation of the sender did not help. Howerver... if you have use for detailed channel setup arround vienna, take a look: Tvheadend seems to lack channel search support using DVB-T2, but puzzeling every value together works fine: Mux A-WNB Channel Frequency: 498000000 Bandwitdh: 8MHz Constellation; QAM/16 Mux B2 Channel Frequency: 578000000 Bandwitdh: 8MHz Constellation; QAM/16 Unstable Twin Tuner I am using some twin tuner. That was not supported on older kernel version, but is now supported on current versions. Great? nope. The system/tvheadend gets unstable if two tuner are enabled running for weeks. After disabling one tuner, tvheadend runs reliable for months. List of unencrypted streams Example stream info tv channel   Surround sound ...
