one quick question: I'd like to have the remote to work normally when xbmc is closed. So if I play a movie in vlc, with the remote I'd like to change the volume, mute etc. But when I press the GSB button, xbmc starts up and your scripts comes in. Is it possible?

thanks

Edit: I read your edits excellent, yes you should use the left Ctrl+Alt on a virtual keyboard and Enter it should work
Edit: left or right ctrl+alt on a virtual keyboard should be the same on some computers it works on others dont lol, but from a hardware keyboard or an MCE remote it should work no issues.

Ok really weird issue.
Using the virtual keyboard (right ctrl+alt+enter) XBMC refreshes to the home screen.
Using the remote with the GSB XBMC doesn't refresh to the home screen.
Any idea why?

Ok mate, uninstall XBMCCustomregis and use this setup instead, I made it to work with XBMC, WMCE and powerdvd etc...

I have been playing around with this OS and installed XBMC 11 onto it but then my my RC^ Microsoft remote doesn't work, this is understandable since server 2012 doesn't ave media center installed. is there a way that I could get this to work?

If you are going to use XBMCCustomregis Setup v2.60.12 then select Windows 8 option as it is based on the same Kernel vs Windows Server 2012, I am just guessing to be honest because I do not have Windows Server 2012 but it make scene to try this option first. Up to you to try Windows 7 option as well if you want, you can always uninstall XBMCCustomregis Setup v2.60.12 and it will revert your PC to what it was. It can also be uninstalled from the Control panel as well.

OK, if you installed XBMCCustomregis Setup v2.60.12 then go to control panel, select uninstall a program and scroll down the list you will find "XBMCCustomregis 2.60.12" select it and uninstall. Then restart your PC. If you installed XBMCCustomregis Setup v1.2.18 then run that same setup file and select uninstall from the options, then restart.

In the near future I might do another Autosetup file for the XBMC, WMCE, PDVD and WinDVD so to make it easier for people that want to use the universal option, and not just the XBMC specific one.

Cheers,
EG.

What I've done was using the manual method, installing the .reg file and putting the keyboard.xml file in the %appdata% folder. I was wondering if I just need to remove the xml file or I should clean the registry as well?

Thanks

My Device manager looks very similar to yours.

I downloaded Showkey and the majority of the buttons give a signal but the red and blue buttons do not.

Thank you Rusti, btw no I have not done that. Will try in the near future.

Just to double check when you are talking about the green button you mean the "Big Start Green Button" in the middle of the remote? Have you already installed autohotkey? The GSB script is it running in the taskbar area?

Now I just want to understand since you have the appropriate "eHome" drivers! Is your remote infra-red receiver is built in to the machine or you are using an external USB infra-red adapter like this one ?

The reason I ask because the ASROCK 330HT-BD is known to use the Nuvoton chip which is shipped with the Nuvoton W836x7HG CIR Device Driver. This is bad news because the receiver requires the CIR driver as its not really using the "eHome" registry location. Since the remote is still not working after you installed xbmccustomregis then I presume that you have not installed any remote drivers from ASROCK disk and thats why your device manager shows the drivers as "eHome" I think. If thats the case and you are using the built in IR receiver, then you have two options:

1- Try 2 registry files that I made in the past which in some cases does work,
====> A- Download the Zotac RC6 registry file, unzip, apply registry, click yes then restart. After you restart press the green start button, see if it will start XBMC.
=====> B- Download the Zotac RC260 registry file, unzip, apply registry, click yes then restart. After you restart press the green start button, see if it will start XBMC.
======> If none of the above works then nothing we can do since the IR module in your ASROCK is not configurable.


2- Unplug the IR module from your montherboard and just buy a certified USB MCE IR receiver like the HP one I just posted above. And btw Kiwi solution will have no effect in your case and you can revert to what you used to have, for a real RC6 XBMCCustomregis should work straight away after a restart.

Now please let me know, if you are using an inboard IR receiver or not, or any of the options above works..

Cheers,
EG.

My question/issue has to do with video add-ons. I can navigate the xbmc menu no problem but once I go into one of my video add-ons I cant scroll the menu options until I click on the list with my mouse. Long story short, the video add on does not launch with the 'cursor' on the menu items and so the remote can't scroll.

(this is in windows vista and i have googled everything under the sun to find a solution)

Thanks in advance.

I am using an external USB infrared sensor. The drivers installed automatically when I plugged it into my media centre.

I went with option A and installed the Zotac RC6 Decoded registry file and after a restart the Big Green Button now works fine.

Thank you very much for your support and I commend you for your dedication to this project.

I tried the method suggested to use multiple players but when in XBMC the green button doesn't bring me to the main page. Everything else works fine! Any help?
