Question

2010-07-30, 02:28 (This post was last modified: 2010-07-31, 09:49 by MontyAus.)

Hi,

I'm looking for some help please - I've had "some" success, but cannot get the remote working.

I have tried the following OS's & apps:
- Win 7 x64, installed x64 driver, installed EG (Latest), XBMCRepeater & XBMCRC.
- Win XP sp3 x32, installed x32 driver, EG (Latest), XBMCRepeater & XBMCRC.
- the EG xbmc.xml file supplied in post 1 of this thread.
- xbox ir dongle is re-configured to plug into usb hub & is 'seen' by windows.

I've followed several different methods throughout this thread, all with no luck.

Success with:
I have had success in regards to installing drivers on both OS's, I can start EG & it finds the Xbox IR usb module ok (on x32 & x64).
I can plug/unplug the Xbox IR adapter & windows acknowledges this (ding ding sound).

ISSUE:
However, when I start XBMC (current nightly build), the remote does not function.

Now, if I plug my xbox ir receiver back into my xbox & start up, xbmc works fine, so this shows the IR & remote are both working ok.

Any assistance would be most appreciated. To me it seems that it's either a driver issue or some issue I've got with how I've setup EG.

Thanks in advance.

UPDATE & RESULT!
OK, looks like I stuffed up my soldering work & one of the IR wires has disconnected after soldering (I removed the IR sensor from the PCB with about 20cm wire to give me options for placement).
All good in the hood.

Now all I need to do is get a handle on how to map my Logitech 855 keys to windows & XBMC so I can fire up FireFox & navigate it (back/forward & bookmarks).

Thanks for the great tutorial. Smile
