You are using vdr 1.0.4 with 0.9.4 driver, right?
If you have set debug=1 in lirc_dvb.c and you don't see any 'ircom' 
messages for these keys, the av7110 firmware does not pass the codes to 
the driver.

No, sorry.

You may upgrade to the developer version of vdr + remote control plugin.
The new firmware/driver accepts all rc5 codes.
