If you are getting a green light with winlirc when pressing remote keys then you probably havent put the file that keymap creates inside xbmc keymap folder which is C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\userdata\keymaps.
If you dont even get green light then your remote isnt configured correct, try some different settings and see if you get a green light.
btw the file needs to be renamed to .cf or .conf or something and loaded into winlirc as config settings.
If you cant access xbmc keymap folder. add a special one through xbmc filemanager which is special://home and move keymap inside the right folder.
oh, and you need to activate remote control keyboard at xbmc system settings input devices

I had to cut an audio jack in half to find out what was connected to what.
On my audio cable:
yellow = ground,
white = left channel
red = right channel
on my other audio cable:
bare wire = ground
white = left channel
red = right channel
But at least USB cable colours are basically standard. Black being ground, red being +5.
That's about all the help I can give you :p

I ponder if I should replace the IRSS part by WinLIRC for Gotham+1. The better step would be to define an interface to hook up every input channel we might have but until this happens ...
And IRSS upstream looks like not very active to me and I couldn't easily find the source.
Thoughts?

eventclients != IRSS. The IRSS was implemented to not support every receiver type, right. Since Linux already uses lirc it should be easy to switch that (if winlirc supports the same api).
But true, it would be nice to know how many would be affected by such a change.
