Hello
I am looking for a bit of guidance, I am running the latest version of kodi on my RP and I have a Samsung Smart TV with Anynet+ (CEC) so my TV remote just works automatically with the Pi which is awesome, however there a couple of things I'd like to tweak and can't for the life of me figure it out.
First of all a lot of the instructions to do it manually state that the keyboard.xml file will need editing to assign the relevant codes etc, well I don't have a keyboard.xml file for starters
I installed the official key mapping addon and assigned the keys I wanted and it generated an xml file called gen.xml which is located here:
\\RASPBMC\pi\.kodi\userdata\keymaps
It said it had saved the changes and sure enough if I re-open the addon they are still there.
The XML file looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
-<keymap>
-<global>
-<keyboard>
<key id="254">skipnext</key>
<key id="251">skipprevious</key>
<key id="206">runaddon(plugin.audio.musicbox)</key>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>
So it all looks good, but the remote buttons do not do anything or just retain their original functionality even after a reboot... Any suggestions on this?
Thanks
