You need a lircrc file for that to use, i think that is just adding
another layer. Instead of learning the keys, you would need
to create what is in remote.conf in the .lircrc and have fixed keywords
in VDR. At least this is my understanding, correct me if i'm wrong. 

The format is described there as well. 

XBMC seems for instance just to read a line 

while (fgets(m_buf, sizeof(m_buf), m_file) != NULL)
...
    char scanCode[128];
    char buttonName[128];
    char repeatStr[4];
    char deviceName[128];
    sscanf(m_buf, "%s %s %s %s", &scanCode[0], &repeatStr[0],
&buttonName[0], &deviceName[0]);

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/xbmc/input/linux/LIRC.cpp

which seems to work well ...
