I've been using xbmc with the xbox remote for like 3 years now I think so i've gotten pretty used to the xbox remote and the way it works. Since I couldnt figure out how to get the xbox remote working with apple tv I decided to set up the remote to work as closely as possible to the feel of the xbox remote. This is what I've done:
Copy paste it. Save it as keymap.xml and then copy it to your apple tv.
I use the FTP app transmit. I set it up with the following info:
server: your apple tv ip address
username: frontrow
pass: frontrow
port: 22
SFTP
Then copy the keymap.xml file to
/Users/frontrow/Library/Application Support/XBMC/userdata/keymap.xml
Quote:<keymap>
<global>
<remote> <!-- Apple Remote configuration -->
<menu>ParentDir</menu> <!-- Menu, short press -->
<back>ContextMenu</back> <!-- Menu, long press -->
</remote>
</global>
<FullscreenVideo>
<remote> <!-- Apple Remote configuration -->
<left>Rewind</left> <!-- Left -->
<right>FastForward</right> <!-- Right -->
<up>BigStepForward</up> <!-- Up -->
<down>BigStepBack</down> <!-- Down -->
<back>Stop</back> <!-- Menu, long press -->
<menu>OSD</menu> <!-- Menu, short press -->
<select>Play</select> <!-- Play/Pause, short press -->
</remote>
</FullscreenVideo>
</keymap>
