I am just wandering what versions of windows this works with?

I am currently running it on Windows 8 Pro with Media Center (using WMC and XBMC) and it is running great...

Hi! Thanks for all the help regarding the RF buttons.

Has anyone found out how to use the IR buttons on the F10 with a PC? I have a MCE IR receiver and it would be really nice to be able to use the power button on the F10...

Hi everyone...

Jurki & costa37 - thank you guys...
Based on your source code I've re-mapped the buttons for XBMC to make the Experience better (to my opinion) for this particular Remote control...

I'm UX Guy so I love Simple user interfaces, so I wanted the remote control to be simple as possible.

so here are my files:

And this is my KeyMap:

Have fun.

Thanks for all the help. I wrote my own script (based on Juki's and costa37's code) that works with my preferences.

I added some functionality for Flash video (green text in picture) and ability to log off, sleep or switch windows regardless of what program you have open.

Well, if you'd like to use the mouse buttons by changing keyboard.xml, you could use a mapping like this:

<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<home>XBMC.ActivateWindow(Home)</home>
<f1>play</f1>
<f2>stop</f2>
<f3>rewind</f3>
<f4>fastforward</f4>
</keyboard>
<mouse>
<leftclick>select</leftclick>
<middleclick>info</middleclick>
<rightclick>back</rightclick>
</mouse>
</global>
</keymap>

But in order to use the <mouse> section, I think you need to activate the mouse as input device in XBMC Settings. By doing this, you will have the mouse pointer flying around all over the screen. Pretty annoying. That's why, at least I, used AutoHotKey instead.

An alternative is to inactive the mouse in XBMC settings and use the following settings:

<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<home>back</home>
<f1>play</f1>
<f2>stop</f2>
<f3>rewind</f3>
<f4>fastforward</f4>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

This should work but you won't be able to use the 'Back', 'Left mouse click' or 'Document icon' buttons, since they are addressed to Right click, Left click and Middle click, respectively.

Thankyou sharbel

Thanks Jurki!
Based on your script I have rearranged the buttons to serve XBMC better (to my opinion ).
I have also added the content menu and the information buttons.

Here are my files:

I am needing to apply this one to my PIVOS xios. Would I be correct to simply download, or copy, the .txt file... Rename it keyboard.xml.... And place it in XBMC/userdata/keymaps?

(Start bevor XBMC starts and disable the Mouse in XBMC!)

Thank you for this ! Everything is working with the exception of the minimize command. I am running win 8 and if I plug a keyboard in alt + tab works just fine, but I am getting no love from the remote. Any ideas as to what is the cause of this ?

Thanks.

Hi, this is awesome! have been googling around for quite a bit and finally found something usable thanks heaps guys!

@sharbel: I wonder if you managed to get the RED buttons to work.. as far as I figured out, the power button transmits a IR signal... how about SUBS and AUDIO?

cheers, and once again: great work here everybody!

[thebearnecessit]

the main problem with this remote is that the centre button in the middle of left right up and down, is not an enter button. its a mouse-click button.

there is a button to the top left of the direction keys that IS an enter button but its not intuitive (at all) to use that button.

I want the central button to be a proper enter button. as im sure everyone else does that has this remote.

there is a way of editing the keyboard.xml file so that when xbmc receives a mouse-left-click it executes a select instead. but i tried it and it only worked intermittently on my android box. (thread here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1388061).

also, on the latest xbmc builds there is a new facility in the keyboard.xml that allows you to stop the mouse cursor from being activated by certain mouse buttons (same thread here: http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...pid1388061).

im trying to use the mele f10 on an android box and its a nightmare so far:

summary: button in the centre of directional pad sends mouse left instead of select. you can change it to select in keyboard.xml (but this seems to work in some parts of xbmc and not others, maybe this problem is only on android boxes) but even if it did work fully, you still end up with the mouse cursor flying around the screen. or you can just use the button above the directional pad as your enter/select button but its not intuitive

Hi

I suppose red keymaps aren't working?

[Boyd]

Thanks to this thread I discovered AutoHotKey and I turned my Mele f10 into a really useful XBMC remote, it's now more like my old Boxee remote which I was so used to using.

I found the way that suited me was to disable mouse, use AutoHotkey to program preferred keyboard layout but also alter keymap.xml so that Home really does go straight to the home window no matter where you are at the time. I think Esc works too much like Back most of the time.

I've been trying to figure a way to make the middle of the dpad (original function left click) act as play pause when content is actually playing. First thought is to alter AutoHotKey script so that the button sends enter and space at the same time but wonder if there is a more elegant way?

Hi
Thanks for all those keymap.
I'm running xbmc on a raspberry pi with raspbmc
Can I just copy yours on a xml file and copy it with ssh ?
There is something else to do ?
Thanks for your help
