Hi,

I've an IR remote, a Fiire Chief to be precise (it's a rebranded version of the Gyration MCE remote)

I've managed to make it usable (there are several buttons that doesn't work) without using lirc or evrouter or anything in XBMCLive, so the input from the remote is like it's coming from a keyboard. I've checked the "Remote control sends keyboard presses" option in settings.

Anyway, my problem is that I can't use the remote 0-9 buttons SMS style. If I hit "22" instead of getting an "a" i get "22"

Is there a place to activate the SMS-style input? How does the SMS-input get activated in XBMC?

Thanks in advance!!

Ok, i've managed to get searching by SMS input in the video library view including

Code:
<keyboard>

<number2>JumpSMS2</number2>

<number3>JumpSMS3</number3>

<number4>JumpSMS4</number4>

<number5>JumpSMS5</number5>

<number6>JumpSMS6</number6>

<number7>JumpSMS7</number7>

<number8>JumpSMS8</number8>

<number9>JumpSMS9</number9>

</keyboard>

in my keymap.xml

I've copied that into the <virtualkeyboard> section, but I'm still unable to enter letters in SMS style. Any help?

Thanks!
