Does anybody know why the MS Media Center reacts on Ctrl+D using the keyboard but not from the remote pressing the Info button? For me that means I can't use both MS MC and XBMC. For most users probably not a big issue but so far I don't use a media center regularly and don't have decided yet which system to use, MS has better WMV rendering and seeking and built in DVB-C support so I guess I'll stick to this for now.

Is there no Backslash Key in the MceRemoteMapper?
you need to select "OemPipe" in MCERemoteMapper :-)

All you need to do is add the code I given you to any of my config.reg files save apply the reg file restart the PC and you will know if this works or not.

@elitegamer360
That's the same reg file I think, I just tried it again and the info button don't work in MS MC, it sends Ctrl+D, MS MC on my PC will only react on Ctrl+D sent from keyboard but not from my remote, it's this MS model:

Thanks elitegamer360, this works with the US Keyboard Layout.
But I'm using the European Layout on my two clients.
So I have to push 2 Buttons (Alt) + (-) instead of just (\). The (-) is the Button right next to 0.
In MCERemoteMapper I tried OemMinus and Alt + OemMinus as well. Both didn't work. Any Idea which Key I have to select to get this working?

Of course its not going to work if you just use "Muti.app.Config.v0.6.reg" you also need to use the one of the Autohotkey scripts that I wrote! use the one depending on your OS, it has a specific patch/code that I have writen that make Windows Media Center detects "Ctrl+D".
You need to follow everything I said on that post not just part of it!

That is weird because I use a "GB/UK" layout and it works on my system! What are you exactly trying to do? if this specific combination is proving difficult then use another :-)

I`m using the german layout, don`t know if there is a difference to the uk.
I want to switch between the fullscreen and window mode with one button on the mce. On the keyboard I have to push Alt and - to do that.

well, simply open Keyboard.xml and look for <backslash>ToggleFullScreen</backslash> then just assign ToggleFullScreen to any combination you like for example <u mod="ctrl,alt">ToggleFullScreen</u> in keyboard.xml.
You do not need to use backslash at all if you are having issues with your keyboard layout! Simple :-)

XBMC v10.1 isn't very good at handling any keyboards other than the US. The impending next version (and the nightly builds) is much better in this respect.
