Remote control (lirc): how to define actions for long-press?
#1
Hello everyone,

I am using an Apple remote and I'd like to use long-press actions in XBMC. This worked out of the box on OS X, but in Linux I cannot get it to work at all.

Long-press itself is reported correctly by lirc (as an repeated event). However I cannot find any documentation on how to make use of it in XBMC.

I set up Lircmap.xml like this:
[HTML]<lircmap>
<remote device="apple">
<left>KEY_BACK</left>
<right>KEY_FORWARD</right>
<up>KEY_UP</up>
<down>KEY_DOWN</down>
<select>KEY_PLAYPAUSE</select>
<back>KEY_MENU</back>
</remote>
</lircmap>[/HTML]

How can I use reapeated events now? Since the remote only has 6 buttons this is crucial for me.

XBMC release: SVN trunk
