Hello all. I wanted to share my modified Keymap.xml file. This is what I've been using alongside my Antec Fusion Black case to get XBMC for Windows running as similarly to XBMC for XBOX as I can. I've changed some things around to keep key consistency throughout different menus (i.e. the letter m, which I have my remote's Menu button mapped to, will bring up the menu in fullscreen video, but also back you out to the Home screen when browsing files). If no one finds this useful, no big deal. For those using remote button to key mapping like I am, this works out pretty great. I know this won't be necessary in the long run, but presently I'd be stuck using a keyboard without it.

Anyway, hope this helps someone out. Enjoy.

Nice one - I already did the same and mapped it to my harmony remote using irtrans server (remote <-> key mapping).

Nice - What Harmony remote do you have? I'm using the 520 right now, which is my first entry into the world of Harmony remotes. The Soundgraph iMON software that drives the LCD on my case does my key mapping.

Hello!

Thanks, gabestover. Basically, I have the same setup (Antec Fusion + Harmony 525), and a lot of commands (toggle subtitle, change audio, etc) are not working by default. So I hope this modified file will do the trick for me.

Hi there,

I´m using the 525 (and will probably upgrade to the 885). As I´m using the IR-Transserver I have setup the 525 to work as MCE-Remote and did another keymapping according to the keymapping for xbmc in the irtrans software to enable all those missing functions.

Maybe there is a similar way in iMon too ...

You are using what XBMC version? (On w32?)
Are you sure the remote IR codes are being read by XBMC?

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

I am using 32-bit Vista and XBMC Atlantis alpha3.
The arrows + enter key works on the remote in XBMC so i gues XBMC can read the IR codes but nothing else works :/
