Trying to fix IR mistakes #14

The issue is as such:

  1. I set up the power button before attempting to setup the other buttons for the remote.
  2. Once you start the process of setting up the other buttons, you're asked to install Lirc, when chosing yes, the script closes, installs Lirc
  3. Once you start the script up again, and go in to configure the other buttons of the remote, the first button it asks you to configure is the power button. However doing so causes the unit to shut off.

I feel like one of two things should be changed with how this works
a) If you choose to set up a remote, the power button setting should be cleared BEFORE running the capture procedure, this would keep the system from shutting off when the power button is clicked during the capture procedure.
b) the power button should not be re-recorded when setting up the "other" buttons of the remote, as it has already been recorded. The value for the button should be instead copied over to the Lirc configuration, as it's already known.

Where i sit at the moment, is the button has already been stored "somewhere" and i have no option for clearing it, as i have idea where the information was stored, as documentation is pretty much non-existent for these scripts.
