Turn off FLIRC buttons with a key bind?

[Eddie Strike]

Hey,

I'm using my default Sony remote for my Windows HTPC setup, works great but I'd love a function that could disable flirc for situations when I want to navigate around my TV without also sending key presses to the HTPC. (I accidently closed my media player while changing the TV picture options)

 

 

Thanks
