Getting remote keys to work
#1
Hello All,

Really pulling my hair out:

Kodi 16.1
LibreELEC (official) - Version: 7.0.2
Generic.x86_64
RCRP05B Universal Remote Control using MCE eHome Infrared Receiver

Been able to re-map the default keys. The Guide and Live buttons in the corresponding buttons in remote.xml (my copy in /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml)

So there are four(yellow/blue/red/green) other buttons on the remote that I was getting no output from watching 'irw'

Found this link

Copied /usr/lib/udev/rc_keymaps/rc6_mce to /storage/.config/rc_keymaps/remote and appened the mapping for my unknown keys -

#my_remote
0x800f0452 KEY_YELLOW
0x800f0453 KEY_BLUE
0x800f0454 KEY_RED
0x800f0455 KEY_GREEN

Setup the autostart.sh as the link describes rebooted and now irw sees my key presses and the default actions defined for them -

/usr/share/kodi/system/keymaps/remote.xml

<red>ActivateWindow(TVChannels)</red>
<green>ActivateWindow(MyVideos)</green>
<yellow>ActivateWindow(MyMusic)</yellow>
<blue>ActivateWindow(MyPictures)</blue>

However if I try to modify the default actions they are ignored

Any input would be appreciated
Thanks
