Hi all,

tried and tried, not sure what im doing wrong

i've read this thread here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=156316 to try an get the jumpsms command working on my harmony one (rc6) remote. - windows build. As explained in the 3rd post here http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=95063

im on frodo 2.7.0 aeon mq4 skin

I have tried activating the buttons (2 through 9) on my harmony software - customize buttons. And set them as XBMC (sw) or MCE keyboard and leave them unactivated as well. I have tried using the xml commands

<two>JumpSMS2</two>
<three>JumpSMS3</three>

as well as..

<numpadtwo>JumpSMS2</numpadtwo>
<numpadthree>JumpSMS3</numpadthree> ect...

My text file named keyboard.xml is located here> C:\Users\[user]\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\keymaps\

and looks like this

<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<k>UpdateLibrary(video)</k>
<w>ToggleWatched</w>
<two>JumpSMS2</two>
<three>JumpSMS3</three>
<four>JumpSMS4</four>
<five>JumpSMS5</five>
<six>JumpSMS6</six>
<seven>JumpSMS7</seven>
<eight>JumpSMS8</eight>
<nine>JumpSMS9</nine>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

I have turned on my debugging started xbmc and attempted to write (a smart playlist name) using the num pad on my remote as desired, and then uploaded the log here in hopes someone can make sense of what im doing wrong.

This log should show 9 numeric key press attempts.

the first 3 (234) with my remote, the second 3 (234) with my keybaood plugged into htpc, the thrid 3 (234) with the numpad on my keyboard plugged into htpc.
My remote is set to button 2 - xbmc (sw) - 2, button 3 - MCE keyboard - 3 all other buttons have been left unbinded

I don't understand what you are trying to do with the 2 and 3 buttons and how they relate to JumpSMS (which allows you to type alphanumeric characters in text input fields using the number buttons, as is done for texting on a phone).

Yep i was just testing to see if i needed to bind them or not as the guide didnt mention how i should customize them with the logitech harmony software. And it wasn't working with them left unbinded. So i figured i'll bind one key each way and see which one works, eg if key 3 works then i'll go back and bind them all to MCE keyboard....

Alas, none of them worked and now i've pulled you into my web of confusion

A simpler question might be, if you have successfully accomplished this what does your customize buttons page look like?

[Canozzie]

Can anyone tell me if I've posted this help request I the right section? These jump sms command are driving me crazy

[Canozzie]

anyone want to have a crack at this one?

Go to http://xbmcmce.sourceforge.net/

use ShowKey.exe to see what keycode your remote is sennding and pare it with action you want.

You can use KeyMapEdit to easily edit your keyboard.xml and avoid mestakes
