I prefer raspbmc but to get my adapter recognised involved alot of terminal work over ssh lol. I can send you the links. But if you're using openelec it's easier. Go to openelec settings and then enable Bluetooth in the tab above Bluetooth then when you go down to the Bluetooth section it will be enabled. Sounds confusing when I explain it but if you need a better explanation let me know!

I'm wondering if it's my bt adapter too, but what's weird is it works otherwise. I've been able to connect my macbook to the pi over bt and send a file via bt file transfer and it worked so I'm not sure what's the issue with the remote. The remote itself works fine on my mac, note 3 and tab s so I'm dumb founded by this one.

Could you explain exactly what I do with the codes you pasted? And thanks for providing a solution even if it's a dirty one (lol) as this has been frustrating the heck out of me.
The below will work but just seems "wrong" to have to use eventlircd for this...
