I use a pronto remote control and through some googling and hard work, have got it working (mostly) with XBMC natively.
However, certain keys will not work, however I try.
Using the RC6 protocol, I can get 255 unique buttons, of which about 70 or so are assigned to functions and work with no problems at all, the rest are all unassigned except for...
The two keys that are giving me trouble are hash(#) and star(*). It appears using showkey.exe that only these are sent as keystrokes, shift-3 and shift-8.
My question is this:
In the remote.xml keymap file, it refers to <star> and <hash>, but these do not seem to correspond with any key using the MCE remote protocol. What do they refer to? Or should they really be <3 mod="shift"> for example?
