Hello to everyone:
I recently got myself a new TV set to find out that the new tv remote
control interacted with the ir sensor I have in my freevo box. After trying
a lot of things in order to avoid this side-effect I decided to make a
change in freevo itself, and I think it could be useful for other people.
It's something like a remote key lock/unlock feature.
When the remote is locked no remote key is processed, until it's unlocked.
Here is the patch (I might have done the patch wrong, it's the first time I
make one, so please fix it if it's wrong).

It uses two config variables in the local_conf.py (key labels in lircrc):
KEYLOCK = 'INPUT'
KEYUNLOCK = 'Q.VIEW'
It would be very nice to have some visual feed back, something like a little
icon in the idle bar that shows when the remote is locked and unlocked, but
that goes far beyond my knowledge of freevo / python. Perhaps someone with
more experience could add this functionality.
Greetings
