I need to correct you here
you can use either remote in the chain of devices.
Example I have my RPi connected to RPi>ONKYO AV Receiver>Panasonic TV and I using remote from my TV to operate XBMC as I found it more comfy cos is smaller and lighter and also easier when I want to switch sources on TV.
So is really up to user what he prefer.
This can be easy set from SSH or direct RPi terminal by typing

Terminal

cec-config

and than just follow the instructions on screen

uh...so both my Denon and my Optoma and my Panny are not working? seems really strange...I do not expect Optoma beamer remote works but I assume Denon and Panasonic should work...anyway, can't wait to try the cec-config from ssh as I'm back home from the office.

I've goggled TSOP4838 and found something it looks more like a component than a irda receiver; how do I connect to Raspy? I doesn't look like it has a usb plug
