Well, if you have defined the key 'M' for a particular menu function,
you shouldn't be surprised if that key is no longer available for
character input ;-)

From VDR/HISTORY:

- If a PC keyboard is used as remote control, the string entry fields in the
  menus now accept character input directly (however, this works only for keys that
  are not otherwise defined as remote control keys).
