Ok, well I have it all configured - but something is not quite right. I have removed Plex from the application folder for no interference, but the "always on" option on the remote doesnt seem to be working (or is overridden somehow by Remote Buddy). I couldnt get XBMC to start by using the play button, menu button, etc (it is supposed to, right? I might be confusing this with Plex). So - I had to write a little applescript and assign it with Remote Buddy to start and stop XBMC.
Also, when I run the XBMChelper in standalone, it tells me that it can't find any remotes (I assume that is because I do not have any paired to the Mac Mini), and it will accept input from remotes as they are found. Then however, it does nothing when I press any buttons. First I had Remote Buddy on, which I figured might interfere, so I turned it off, still didn't see anything. Next I uninstalled the Candelair driver that RemoteBuddy uses and rebooted - same thing. The really odd thing was that with Candelair and Remote Buddy turned off - even the Harmony "Plex" device setting didn't let me control XBMC. Not sure why that is happening, and it precludes me from getting any data from XBMChelper. Any ideas what might be going on?
