Hi guys,
I'm currently configuring an XBMC/MythTV install here and have hit a snag pretty much when it has all but been completed.
My issue is with LIRC passing info from my DVICO Fusion remote to XBMC itself.
I have the remote configured and working with LIRC and can happily use it to control MythTV with full functionality and have about 99% functionality in XBMC!
The 1% I'm missing in XBMC is a pretty big 1% in that I cannot select anything with my remote. I can navigate fine, pull up menu's do pretty much everything except for actually selecting an option with the 'OK' button. To get this functionality I instead have to hit enter on the keyboard!
I have configured LIRC in two ways to try and get it to work:
(1) Use keymap.xml and lircmap.xml
(2) Use irexec as a daemon and get it to shoot keyboard equivalents to XBMC with a correctly configured .lircrc file
I have also tried configuring my 'OK' button to be either 'enter' or 'return' but neither works and everything else does.
I've spent hours trawling through Google looking for answers but have come up emply. If anyone can help it'd be great to hear from you.
Cheers,
Fezla
P.S. I'm running XBMC 9.11 on an Arch Linux install.
