I just started using xbmc on a net top, after having xbmc for Mac on Mac mini for years. I have several questions regarding setting up my mce remote. I have read the sticky thread and have seen The xbmc remote confit plugin method too which is here: http://xbmcmce.sourceforge.net/
1- which is the preferred to do this? Event ghost or the xbmc mce plugin method linked, or is this all now baked into xbmc for win the way they were in xbmc Mac. With event ghost if I add the xbmc plugin, are the keys pre programmer or do I have to drag the keys recorded? Also with event ghost do I need to edit some keymaps XML file.
2- how do I set up my system so that the mce media key brings up xbmc?
3- so far certain actions Also trigger media centre to start. How do I disable this behavior.
4- I also just read the wiki which mentions registry changes pretty much for every remote listed but doesn't clarify why. I also don't know if this is still necessary to do. My remote btw is the hp original mce. It also says T doesn't work. What button is this?? 8?
I'm using the latest xbmc btw.
