I'm looking for some general advice with setting up CEC to control XBMC (OpenELEC) on a ZBox ID41 and a new Panasonic SmartViera TV.
I know i need to purchase a Pulse-Eight box but before I do I have a couple of questions:
1. How much control will i actually get? For example, will i be able to use the TV remotes arrows, Ok, Back, Stop, FF, RW etc. all the keys you would use frequently on the XBMC-dedicated remote?
2. Will i be able to configure the keys?
3. If i can use the arrow keys to control XBMC, what happens when i need to use them for the TV?
Sorry for all the questions, i just want to make sure i undersand before buying the Pulse-Eight box.
