I've been searching the forum and the wiki and cannot get my Streamzap IR remote to control XBMC. At one point I had the arrow keys working, but nothing else. Now that isn't even working.
I'm running XBMC 9.11b in Ubuntu 9.10. I'm really quite irritated that this isn't as easy as it was in MythTV.
Here's what I've got so far:
I've had quite a time piecing this information together from various places, since it doesn't seem to be gathered in any one place. I imagine I've overlooked something or gotten something wrong. Any help would be awesome and save the rest of my hair from being yanked out.

Here's what I've got so far:
- /etc/lirc/lircd.conf is the predefined file lirc provided for the Streamzap
- [home]/.xbmc/userdata/Lircmap.xml contains this block for my remote:
Code:<remote device="Streamzap_PC_Remote">
<play>PLAY</play>
<pause>PAUSE</pause>
<stop>STOP</stop>

I hand wrote this keymap. I couldn't find one that I could just copy in. It only has a few keys defined because I figured it was pointless to write out a bunch of keys when basics like OK and pause don't even work.Code:<keymap>
<global>
<remote>
<up>up</up>
<down>down</down>
<left>left</left>
<right>right</right>
<ok>select</ok>
<pause>pause</pause>
<RED>osd</RED>
</remote>
</global>
</keymap>
