IR remote modulation w/stamp?

Hello,
I'd like to output IR remote commands for a DVD player made by Apex. I found
the codes (in two different formats) that I believe would work for my model
player.

or

This seems like this is the information I would need to output the correct
pulses from an IR LED... But I'm not certain I really understand how this
all works-
First off: is the stamp fast enough to sustain the need transfer speed to
send an IR command? I heard from someone off-list who mentioned that it was
not fast enough to handle both recording and playback...
If so, could someone give me a couple pointers on how to assemble this? I've
read a variety of different IR remote projects, none of them specifically
designed for the basic stamp... Do I need to wire up a component which can
modulate the correct frequency? 38 or 40 Khz?
If this does not seem reasonable then I will need to wire
relays/opto-isolators onto the actual remote and simulate a button press
with a relay closure. I've seen it work before but I was hoping to put
together this nifty IR system...
What do you think? Is this reasonable?
