Hi!
I've got a xubuntu box with XBMC installed using the PPA repos. The box is autostarted into XBMC through GDM using the xbmc-standalone package.
I'm struggling to get my remote working. I've bought a RF-USB remote from Medion (X10, p/n 20016398). I've set up lirc correctly (i think) as i can see the proper (expected) output on irw.
I did not change the keymap.xml nor remote.xml. I'm trying to get the basic functions of the remote working before I'll move on.
My lircmap.xml looks like this:
<lircmap>
<remote device="Medion">
<play>PLAY</play>
<pause>PAUSE</pause>
<stop>STOP</stop>
<forward>FFW</forward>
<reverse>REW</reverse>
<left>LEFT</left>
<right>RIGHT</right>
<up>UP</up>
<down>DOWN</down>
<select>OK</select>
<highlight>RENAME</highlight>
<info>SNAPSHOT</info>
<back>DELETE</back>
<menu>DELETE</menu>
<skipnext>NEXT</skipnext>
<skipprevious>PREV</skipprevious>
</remote>
</lircmap>
I can now move up/down/left/right/select/back, but when I play a video file, I can use play and pause, but rewind and fast forward do not work. I've checked the keymaps.xml and remote.xml files and the tags are defined there. I've also quadruple-checked the names of the rcu keys in the lirc config and those are ok as well.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance!
