Hello all,
I setup XBMC on my main PC and display it via a 30 foot HDMI cable to my 40 1080p TV. I have configured XBMC to display on monitor 2 (my 1080p TV) and send audio to the TV as well. Works Great! BUT I dont have a remote yet. I want to use my xbox360 controller as my remote and I can until a different program is selected. For example, I open XBMC and left my GF navigate through XBMC. As soon as i use my mouse to select another application or deselect XBMC by clicking the start menu/desktop/anything besides XBMC then the controller no longer can control XBMC.
My question is can I FORCE the xbox controller to control XBMC? Can I dedicate it or "lock" it to control only XBMC and have XBMC ignore other inputs?
Thanks!
