Hi all,
I'm trying to configure my Ultrax media remote for usages with XBMC - live...
Failed when i tried to find a keymap.xml for this device unfortunatly...
Now i'm trying to capture all keys/keycodes to create my own.. and found out i had to use XEV in the shell to find out which keys are pressed etc... But i just can't figure it out!
I got to the part where the command looked like
xev -display 127.0.0.1:0
When running the command through SSH a white square appears in the top-left corner of xbmc. But it doesn't register anything nor can i click on it with a mouse since the mouse just seems to disappear underneath it...
i found the -id option with which i should be able to monitor a certain window but what id is xbmc using? I found several id's with xwininfo and such and tried monitoring them one by one, but no luck there!!!
I'm not a linux guru and only know the basics of the shell but i just can't figure it out through google and such.... Most of them just say i should run xev and that's it....
Another option might be a keymapper plugin for xbmc but can't seem to find that either... please let me know
(p.s. sorry for the cross-post but it seems no-one can answer my question in the live section of this forum
).
