[XBOX] HOW TO configure XBMC for Xbox and Logitech Harmony ONE Remote

7. SMS JUMPING in Videos Library.....

  • In the keymap.xml search for the tag <MyVideoLibrary>
  • then look for its sub tag <remote> (This is your DVD remote section) So we are editing HOW your dvd remote functions whilst in Video Library mode Wink

Directly under remote you will have by default:

Code:
<zero>Queue</zero>
<clear>Delete</clear>
<three>VolumeUp</three>
<six>VolumeDown</six>
<nine>Mute</nine>

We will NOT be using these, so you can either DELETE them or Comment them out like i have done (picture below of my keymap.xml). By commenting them out means that XBMC will not read these lines and just skip over it as COMMENT tags have been put around them.

What we will be replacing it with is:

Code:
<two>JumpSMS2</two>
  <three>JumpSMS3</three>
  <four>JumpSMS4</four>
  <five>JumpSMS5</five>
  <six>JumpSMS6</six>
  <seven>JumpSMS7</seven>
  <eight>JumpSMS8</eight>
  <nine>JumpSMS9</nine>

So it works like a mobile phone where a button has 3 or 4 letters like:

So If you push the button "2" once, it will skip to the movies in your library that start with A. If you push "2" again, it will skip to the movies starting with B. 3 times, to the movies with C. Makes sense? Good.

So here is a snapshot of what my keymap.xml looks like:
--------------

Mind you, Commenting out what i said before will remove their ability to function. IE, you wont be able to MUTE or put the volume up and down whilst looking through your Library. Somthing which is not needed IMO, as you can do this on your harmony as it controls your AMP or TV volume.

You can obviously leave the <zero> button in there (as stated earlier what we were going to remove) and also <clear> if you like. I just removed them all as i didnt use them, but feel free to leave them in. Its just from 2 - 9 you MUST use in the SMS config. So in the case you wanted to leave 0 & Clear your section would look like:

Code:
[b]  <zero>Queue</zero>
  <clear>Delete</clear> [/b]
  <two>JumpSMS2</two>
  <three>JumpSMS3</three>
  <four>JumpSMS4</four>
  <five>JumpSMS5</five>
  <six>JumpSMS6</six>
  <seven>JumpSMS7</seven>
  <eight>JumpSMS8</eight>
  <nine>JumpSMS9</nine>

Question 
First of all - great tutorial! Appreciate the hard work.

I just got my Harmony One and setup everything except for XBMC.

I wanted to create an activity with the XBOX1 but I am not having success.. May I ask what the Activity Type is called that you are using to setup the XBOX ?

Specifically this pic:

When I add a new activity I get the choices - which one do I have to choose?

loving this - managed to get a button that starts PartyMode which i have been dying for as it is a real pain to start

did it this way

add

<obc74>XBMC.PlayerControl(PartyMode(q:\userdata\PartyMode.xsp)</obc74>

to keymap.xml

then map Random to "Party Mode" in the Harmony setup app

GREAT STUFF - so happy........

You can always use this command.
SendClick([window,]controlID).

I got my logitech harmony one yesterday and I love it so far. This guide looks really good an I will reflect most of it on to my own remote. I also have the XIR V1 chip installed which uses the xbox remote to turn on/off the xbox.

But my problem is the number "0" is used on XIR to turn off the xbox and I wanted to free this button up somehow to be used as "0" again and have the power button turn off and on the xbox on the Harmony. Anyone have experience with the Harmony remote and XIR chip or similar setup?
