I have XBMC all setup on a Revo running windows I have a VRC-1100 remote same one listed on http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Rem...ol_Reviews

Every command works but the issue I have is I cant Use the info command now I have already found were the keymap file and also found were to create one in the User/appdata Ect. but i have no idea what to type in the keymap.XLM file or whater to change anykey to the I key so info will work I dont care what key will be my I key I just need to map any key to be an I key so I can add the IR signal to my harmony 1000. I hope i;m making sense.
Can someone write me the script i need to cut and paste in there or walk me through it you would save me another night of headaches

The i button on the VRC-1100 sends a right mouse click, which is not terribly useful in XBMC.

You've got two options. The first is to use the Harmony software to map some other button to the Info button. On my Harmony 300 I mapped the VRC-1100 * button to the Harmony Info button, then in my keyboard.xml I have:

Code:
<keymap>
  <global>
    <keyboard>
      <eight>info</eight>
    </keyboard>
  </global>
</keymap>

The reason for mapping <eight> is that XBMC sees the VRC-1100 * button press as "8", presumably because * is shift-8 on a US keyboard.

The other option is to upgrade to a nightly build, or wait for the v11.0 beta to start. In v11.0 you can remap the right mouse click using:

Code:
<keymap>
  <global>
    <mouse>
      <rightclick>Info</rightclick>
    </mouse>
  </global>
</keymap>

Close :-) You want:

<six>contextmenu</six>

If you're not sure what the action should be have a look at the keyboard.xml in the XBMC installation directory C:\Program Files\XBMC\system\keymaps. For example, since you want the same action as "C" you can search this file for <c> and you'll find:

<c>ContextMenu</c>
