From my logitech ultra-x media remote i got a lot of messages in the log like these, can they be mapped to a function in xbmc?

I have tested to add something like this in my Keymap.xml but it doesn't work:


<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
..
..
..
<volume-up>VolumeUp</volume-up>
<volume-down>VolumeDown</volume-down>
<mute>Mute</mute>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

For start use irw to know ur remote code name and after it correct lirkmap.xml in /usr/share/xbmc
and u need to change remote section ofkeymap.xml

It isn't a IR remote, it uses radio. All other maps i have used with the buttons working (eg the number buttons) maps directly to keyboard presses. They work and looks like this in my config:

<key id="61537">PreviousMenu</key>

Sorry. Never use radio in linux but always think it full support wired keyboard.
Ordinary ps/2 keyboard works with this in global section of keymap

Just try - it should work

What i meant was some of my remote keys work in the keyboardsettings in Keymap.xml. Those who are working report an onkey event. Those that i haven't been able to map reports like those in my first post.

I have found some other that has the same problem (often reports similiar with special keys on some keyboards)

http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?p=234264

according to this i cant't get them to work until "it's patched"

So...
Sorry i don`t understand.

What i mean is, some of my buttons on my remote works. Those that do reports an onkey in the xbmc log

This is my Keymap.xml
This are buttons 0-9 on the remote. These buttons are working and generating events in the log, like this:
All other buttons like pause, next and so on, only generates these errors:

Hi
I'm also having this same problem with a USB CyberLink Remote, its a remote keyboard not a remote control.... same situation as you are in I'm seeing the same ButtonPressed message
Did you find a solution?

No nothing. I have tried a bunch of possible solutions but none of them have worked
