After some trial and error, it looks like there are quite a few MCE remote buttons that already mapped to various functions in windows if you don't disable the HID service:
Navigation/select
Power
Mute
Vol +/-
Record TV
TV EPG
Live TV
Clear
Enter
A lot of those would come in handy if I could map them in XBMC. The problem with disabling the HID service though is that you can no longer use the remote correctly for Windows Media Center.
Is there some weird way to do this where I can have it both ways? Like a way to not disable HID until you start XBMC and the re-enable HID when XBMC is closed?

Can anyone help I have an irda port in my PC and I also have an MCE remote which I'd like to get to work together
If I go into system - device manager under USB ports I don't have an MCE remote driver installed. How do I go about getting this installed please?
Thanks

Has anyone tried running EventGhost as normal user? It doesn't seem to work that way; but reads the signals if only run as administrator. Which is kinda useless for me as I run XBMC as a normal user. Everyone out here uses EG run XBMC as admin user? Cheers!!!

Do you know how to capture mouse events?
For me only Mouse.MiddleButton is logged, but no right click and left click.

is it possible to keep all mapped keys to their original status ( vol.up / down/ mute/ left rright etc.. ) but re-map the big green windows key ? I can map it to XMBC, but now Windows Media center opens along with XMBC.. annoying.
is there a way of doing it with eventghost ?

Does anyone knows what key (or combination of keys) I have to map to get MUTE sound? I have disabled the HID service in order to have the volume overlays in Aeon but I can't get the mute button to map/work. Thanks!
