Hi all,
I'm stuck trying to get my all-in-one remote / keyboard to work. It is a 2.4ghz radio remote with normal remote functions on one side and a keyboard on the other. It also is an air-mouse. When plugged in it shows up as two HID devices, one keyboard and one mouse. It works pretty well without any remapping except for a few keys. The OK key on the joypad for instance by default is the mouse-left and the back key doesn't register at all (even as any keypress in the xbmc log)
So, I used Lirc to capture the input from it and remap it through remote.xml. This means the mouse-left can be mapped to <enter> and the unknown back button can be mapped to <back>. However, the keyboard no longer works at all and I can't figure out how to map the Lirc key names through to the alphanumeric input on xbmc so it works again as a keyboard.
Can anyone help? I'm basically only missing the keyboard alphanumeric input from my Lirc / remote.xml setup.
Many thanks,
Max
