Setting this to confirmed since the remote definition differs from the sort-of-upstream lirc-remotes. Basically this is a Kodi bug since Kodi (as the only major client) does not respect the mappings done by lircrc but instead reads the raw codes from lircd. One of the purposes of lircrc is to han

Thanks for the suggestion (and for your work upstream!). I had a look at lirc-remotes, and it already has what I consider the correct fix, namely, to change the key code to KEY_PLAYPAUSE. If when I get this version of lirc on my machine I still have my MCE remote, and it still doesn't work in Kod
