Hi

Anyone know how I can use my Magic Trackpad as a XBMC remote too? Works fantastic in Lion, but it would be great to use the trackpad as a remote for XBMC too. I have an app on my iPad that mimicks the trackpad as a remote (Rowmote Pro) where swiping left is left cursor, swiping right is right etc.

Any way to do this with the Magic Trackpad? Ideally certain portions of the pad would be keys like "menu" too. Maybe it's a long stretch Smile
For the ATV2, not currently possible. For other iOS devices? Possible. iDevices can use bluetooth mice/trackpads (search for "BTstack" in Cydia. I can't recall the exact name at the moment), but the gestures will be the same as what you can do on the actual iDevice screen.
It's on a Mac Mini

Then why are you posting in the iOS forum section ?
My mistake then. Sorry.
Thread moved.

I would take a look at BetterTouchTool for Mac OS X. It should let you create and map all sorts of gestures that XBMC can use.
