This is the post in question:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/rhythmbox-devel/2005-April/msg00102.html

Unfortunately, I think we decided against applying lirc support to
Rhythmbox, because we have both a d-bus and a bonobo interface available
for 3rd-party applications to control Rhythmbox with.

I'm however interested in your patch for Rhythmbox, Totem and possibly
the Volume keys from the gnome-control-center (né Acme). Mind explaining
what the magic values are?

Cheers
