Can someone please tell me how to config XBMC to control OSXs volume when I click on the up and down remote on my apple remote that is connected to my mac mini.
At this point xbmc internal volume would be locked at full
Im using Transparency as the skin if that matters. I must be not searching correclty as system volume is not pulling up anything relevant on the forum
thanks for the help.

Sorry, but could you tell me if this is correct?
Copy your keymap.xml and rename to keyboard.xml
place keyboard.xml in XBMC/userdata/keymaps in the actual XBMC package.
I open up appleScript editor. Paste your two scripts hit compile and then save the names as volumeup and volumedown and place them in a newly created folder called scripts in the XBMC/userdata dir.
Do need to do anything after that?
thanks

Still having issues.
keyboard.xml in:
/Users/mini/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata/keymaps
volumeup.applescript and volumedown.applescript in:
/Users/mini/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata/Scripts
I copied your pasted scripts to the 3 new files and checked to make sure they match.
Verified that the buttons are assigned to call the apple script:
<button id="1">RunScript(../scripts/VolumeUp.applescript)</button>
<button id="2">RunScript(../scripts/VolumeDown.applescript)</button>
I even copied the scripts to another location and had the full path in the keyboard.xml to match.
Am i being stupid here?

Never mind. A good old fashion reboot fixed it.
Thank you so much for your help I appreciate it.
This has been such a big annoyance in regards to XBMC not including this.
