Hi there,

I am attempting to edit the keymap for a PS2 controller connected to my HTPC via a USB adapter. I'm using the latest stable version of OpenELEC.

The controller connects and works fine, I am simply trying to edit the keymaps for personal preference.

Looking at the log file, I have deduced that the PS2 controller is listed as a "USB Gamepad" from this line:

Code:

18:34:51 T:139699081869120  NOTICE: Enabled Joystick: USB Gamepad

Therefore I attempted to edit the keymap manually by creating a keymap.xml file in the following location: \\<My HTPC IP>\Userdata\keymaps

Here is the contents of that keymap.xml file (based on this thread):

Code:

<keymap>

  <global>
    <joystick name="USB Gamepad">
      <altname>PLAYSTATION 2 Controller</altname>
      <altname>PS2 Controller</altname>
      <altname>Sony Computer Entertainment Controller</altname>

      <button id="1"></button>
      <button id="2">Select</button>
      <button id="3">Play</button>
      <button id="4">Stop</button>
      <button id="5"></button>
      <button id="6"></button>
      <button id="7">Back</button>
      <button id="8">Select</button>
      <button id="9"></button>
      <button id="10">ActivateWindow(shutdownmenu)</button>
      <button id="11"></button>
      <button id="12"></button>

      <!-- Left Analog -->
      <axis id="1" limit="-1"></axis>
      <axis id="1" limit="+1"></axis>
      <axis id="2" limit="-1"></axis>
      <axis id="2" limit="+1"></axis>
      <button id="11"></button>

      <!-- Right Analog -->
      <axis id="3" limit="-1"></axis>
      <axis id="3" limit="+1"></axis>
      <axis id="4" limit="-1"></axis>
      <axis id="4" limit="+1"></axis>
      <button id="12"></button>

      <!-- D-Pad -->
      <hat id="1" position="up">Up</hat>
      <hat id="1" position="right">Right</hat>
      <hat id="1" position="down">Down</hat>
      <hat id="1" position="left">Left</hat>

    </joystick>
  </global>

  <FullscreenVideo>
    <joystick name="USB Gamepad">
      <hat id="1" position="right">StepForward</hat>
      <hat id="1" position="left">StepBack</hat>
      <button id="1">Info</button>
    </joystick>
  </FullscreenVideo>

</keymap>

However, upon restarting the HTPC it has had no effect. The debug log also has the following line of code:

Code:

18:34:51 T:139699081869120  NOTICE: No Joystick name specified, loading default map

So I attempted to create a joystick.xml file by copying the keymap.xml file in the same location and naming it joystick.xml

I can tell that the keymaps are being loaded:

Code:

18:34:51 T:139699081869120    INFO: Loading special://masterprofile/keymaps/gen.xml
18:34:51 T:139699081869120    INFO: Loading special://masterprofile/keymaps/joystick.xml
18:34:51 T:139699081869120    INFO: Loading special://masterprofile/keymaps/keyboard.xml
18:34:51 T:139699081869120    INFO: Loading special://masterprofile/keymaps/keymap.xml

but it's still not changing any of the buttons.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what it is that I'm doing wrong? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Cheers
