Missing ContextMenu via keyboard.xml
#1
Hello Guys,
I'm new to raspberry Pi and xbmc. So I have set up raspbmc and the great problem is, that there is no "title" key on my tv's remote control, so I have no ContextMenu in xbmc. I have a Remote Control from LG.
Now I have googled a lot, found very confusing stuff, none of it worked. I then found a simple solution. I went via WINSCP to my pi, went to ./xbmc/userdata/keymaps and created a keyboard.xml with the following content:
<keymap>
<global>
<remote>
<guide>Contextmenu</guide>
</remote>
</global>
</keymap>

Then, happily I rebooted the pi, pressed guide and..... Got an error message from my tv that the function is not avaliable. So what the heck have I done wrong? According to the documentation out there, my way must work.
I'd be very thankful for any help, cause I'm losing my nerves about this.

Thanks

Welcome to the XBMC forums.

Enable debug logging in XBMC and then press the Guide button several times. Review your debug log (wiki) and see if your keyboard.xml got loaded and also see how XBMC identified those Guide button key presses and what actions it took in response.
