hi,

I noticed recently that my xbmc doesn't love my fully. what do I mean?

I have edited Lircmap.xml and Keymap.xml. I think everything should work, but xbmc doesn't think so.

I'm sure it recognizes my buttons.

xbmc starting up (from xbmc.log): http://wklej.org/id/4310/

pressing a button, which doesn't work in xbmc: http://wklej.org/id/4311/

my Lircmap.xml: http://wklej.org/id/4312/
my Keymap.xml: http://wklej.org/id/4313/
my lircd.conf: http://wklej.org/id/4315/

if you know how, please help me or request more info.

PS. yes, I have debug log enabled in xbmc's settings.

[User 34397]

almost forgot.

XBMC: 20080710-3 (PackMan RPM), XBMC tells it's "SVN: unknown"
openSUSE 11.0
i686

full debug log: http://wklej.org/id/4341/

From what I see both Lircmap.xml and Keymap.xml are wrong.

Look at this http://forum.xbmc.org/showpost.php?p=167902&postcount=9

In Lircmap you should tell XBMC what the lirc means in terms of the names found in <remote> in Keymap.xml. Hope that made sense >D

P.S Very good you appended logs and all that one your first post but next time don't truncate the log, never know what could have been missed

Cheer,
Tobias

I don't understand Lircmap.xml now...

<button name from lircd.conf></button name from lircd.conf>
or
<desired button name for XBMC>button name from lircd.conf</desired button name for XBMC>

when using second format, some buttons worked. changing to first made my xbmc don't recognize any buttons...

Is there a guide on how to set everything up in Ubuntu (getting the Windows MCE Remote to control XBMC)

Lircmap.xml should contain
<remote device="NAMETHATIRWRETURNS">
<foo>Lircd.conf button name</foo>
</remote>

Were foo is the one you want to link with that LIRC command.

Here are the linkable remote buttons

For mceusb2 it should only be needed to sudo apt-get install lirc and choose the mceusb2 (new one with philips)

Topfs2, so my Lircmap.xml is ok. Why did you said it's wrong?

Keymap.xml seems also ok.

Because it is wrong, if it's this one..

http://wklej.org/id/4312/

Here is 3 examples on how it should be: https://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot...ircmap.xml

Also the Keymap is very wrong if it's this one:
http://wklej.org/id/4313/

You don't have remote device in keymap.xml
Only in Lircmap.xml
In keymap you just map the XboxDVDDongle.

Read that, reread my 2 posts carefully and it should work. Are you sure IRW is giving you any response.

[User 34397]

yes, all my keys work in irw and every other app that normally uses lirc.

so my xbmc-internal names of buttons must match that ones from <remote /> from Keymap.xml and they cannot be children of my imagination?

Keymap.xml: http://wklej.org/id/4491/
Lircmap.xml: http://wklej.org/id/4490/

I'm trying to understand you and xbmc's log, but that's all not human friendly.

[User 34397]

got it. button names for internal xbmc use must match those from upstream Lircmap.xml.

my Lircmap.xml: http://wklej.org/id/4628/
my Keymap.xml: http://wklej.org/id/4629/

Hi there,
my remote is not working either, and i have no clue why. Right now i seem to be too stupid to find an error.
Maybe someone could give me a hint.
I am using hardy and tried different configs so far.
My Keymap.xml (which should be the default one)
My Lircmap.xml (<- the used device is the last one called MEDION)
My lircd.conf
My xmbc.log (< which at least confirms me that something happens if i press a button on remote)

Thanks for your help & keep up the nice work.

ensure in Keymap.xml where you are specifying actions for remote buttons you have specified device in every remote-specific <remote />.

also, read posts before you posted.

Maybe i understood that wrong, but isnt this the case in my Keymap.xml?

also, read posts before you posted.

No comment on that.
