I am supposed to edit the keyboard.xml file that I copied from your site (version 1.80) to my folder c:/Program Files (x86)/XBMC/system/keymaps
I know there is another file located in the Userdata folder, but if I'm correct this file does not need touching right?
I used Notepad ++ which should be XML compliant and I have used for other XML tasks before with no problem.
I do have a Logitech harmony One remote as said, and I could set that up as a MCE keyboard remote. Any clue if this would help me on my way if you have no other suggestions.
It seems very strange that not even the default v.1.80 file takes me to the correct place in Movies library as you said, you have tested it on several setups with no problems, and nobody else have reported errors either.
I just do not understand what I could have done wrong, it seems like it should not be so difficult especially with your very good guidance.
I might know why its not working for you! Do you have keyboard.xml in your userdata folder?

1- If you have keyboard.xml in your Userdata folder
Code:
C:\Users\your_username_here\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\keymaps
then it will take priority over the ->
2- System keyboard.xml in
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\system\keymaps
so any modifications you do to the second one, it will
NOT take effect.

So to make it simple for you, you either put my keyboard.xml v1.80 in the
userdata folder
Code:
C:\Users\your_username_here\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\keymaps
and it will takeover the System one "
thats what I do in my machines". Any future updates should be in the
userdata folder and
NOT in the system folder.
Or if you want to use the
System folder
Code:
C:\Program Files (x86)\XBMC\system\keymaps
then you should overwrite the original keyboard.xml with v1.80 and make sure that there is
NO Keyboard.xml in the
userdata folder.
In my guide I just use the
System location to avoid confusion. When telling the users which keyboard.xml to modify {System location or Userdata one} its just major headache I just do not want to go in to. They'll learn in due time!
Anyone else having the same issue as tormi?
