I just unwrapped a new remote for my system and testing it out and had a few questions.
I have
- Win7 64bit with XBMC 10.1
- 2 screens, my PC screen which I'll use while watching movies on #2, and my TV set connected via HDMI though an ATI 5670 (XBMC opens in screen 2 only)
- HP Remote (HP P/N: 5069-8344)
- HP Receiver (HP P/N: 5188-1667)
Questions are
SOLVED 1) How do I shut off Media Player from seeing the remote? Sometimes I hit the wrong button and my computer switches to a Media Player screen.
UNSOLVED 2) Can I get the remote to work in XBMC without having to have my mouse pointer clicked into that window? If I have my mouse on my PC screen, the remote does nothing.
SOLVED 3) What's the easiest way to remap? example the 'More' button I want to show movie info/details, and the 4 buttons along the top I want mapped to
Videos, TV Shows, Music and Pictures.
I did read the sticky, and they have a download link for some auto installer 1.1.99, but I don't want to install it yet and find out I just made things harder for myself. Figured best to ask first since I'm not even 100% sure what all that installer does entirely. Hoping it fixes all 3 of my probs.
Anyone?
