Both methods will bridge the IR signals with Standard Command defined in the IR file.

The useBridgeJoinMap property implements GenericIrControllerJoinMap.cs to standardized IR driver Standard Command signal joins. This allows users to swap IR drivers that implement Standard Command while bridging IR signals consistently between drivers. For example, when useBridgeJoinMap is present, channel up will be mapped to join-22 + device joinstart for any IR driver that has the signal marked as Standard Command.
