"I'm not sure if anyone tested this. Please feel free to do so and report back!"
That looks like my project for today.

raydevos Wrote:Sorry if I do sound stupid, but how do you test this "universal mode"?
- By pressing manually the combination on the apple remote
- Or by programming those combination on a universal remote?
raydevos Wrote:If the latest, then I guess you need a special remote. The way you can program combination on my universal remote is really not straight forward, you have to assign each function to different keys, then you can create "macros" and assign them to special keys...
raydevos Wrote:One more question, is the "menu hold" a specific code to learn to the universal remote or it's just a "menu code that last a certain time"?IIRC, the different hold keys (right_h, left_h, play_h, menu_h) are specific IR codes.
Thanks :-)

The fantastic result I get is that the sound goes down ;-)
Brandroid Wrote:I'm having no luck with these either. I've added the keymap.xml file as instructed, universal mode is enabled in Launcher settings and XBMC, but I can't get any of the sequences to be recognized. I've tried many times with the Apple remote as well as my Harmony 550.
I've also never been able to get <displayremotecodes> to work. Am I missing something blatantly obvious?

Brandroid Wrote:After taking a look at the logs, I see one error:Sorry it took until today. Didn't get to my ATV yesterday.
But according to the console log I'm firing the sequences as expected. Perhaps the problem lies with my keymap.xml? The keymap is in my userdata directory, and you can see the xml here.
Strangely, the error only appears once, although I tried multiple times to fire two different sequences (stop and pause) while playing a video fullscreen.
