DisplayRemoteCode

JoeMullins · 2008-05-12 03:27

I'm trying to program my Harmony One to use the new universal remote key mappings, but I'm having mixed luck having the remote learn the key presses. I think the remote is missing presses, but I can't tell without having XBMC show me the remote codes it's receiving.

I've tried creating an AdvancedSettings.xml file in the Userdata folder with the remotecode true statement, but it doesn't work.

Any idea how to turn this on in XBMC for mac?

You can get some notion of what's happening by manually starting XBMCHelper like this:

$ ./XBMC.app/Contents/Resources/XBMC/XBMCHelper --verbose --universal

Make sure it's not running when you do this:

$ killall XBMCHelper

I can't see the codes.

I create a "advancedsettings.xml" in my /home/{user}/.xbmc/userdata

The xml is...

Code:

<advancedsettings>

    <displayremotecodes>true</displayremotecodes>

    <fullscreen>false</fullscreen>

</advancedsettings>

Nothing happends and XBMC start in fullscreen mode.

Ubuntu 8.04 - xbmc 8.10 ppa repository.

Some help?

Thanks...

I can read the code with "showkey -k" or "showkey -m"

Can I use in linux de system/Keymap.xml Confused

Code:

<keymap>

  <universalremote>

    <obc49>number1</obc49>

    <obc50>number2</obc50>

    ...

  </universalremote>

</keymap>

Those are the codes of my Eurocase 1100 Usb remote.
