 **Lirc** package provide a tool, **irrecord**, to help registering the buttons of own remote controller. Once the tool is started, for example, you will be asked to press the buttons and it will analyse the signals of your remote controller like protocol type or headers. After this analysis you can start register the buttons one by one.
