Hello,

I am testing a new remote with XBMC , which is actually intended as a PS3 DVD remote. When connected to Windows or Linux the IR dongle is recognized as a joystick.

I have been testing on an Ubuntu 10.10 (Mint 10) , to ultimately install on a dedicated XB<C live installation.

Here is what I have so far

Code:
$ grep PS3 /proc/bus/input/devices

N: Name="ACRUX IR PS3 Remote Pad"

$ jstest /dev/input/js0

Driver version is 2.1.0.

Joystick (ACRUX IR PS3 Remote Pad) has 6 axes (X, Y, Z, Rz, Hat0X, Hat0Y)

and 13 buttons (BtnX, BtnY, BtnZ, BtnTL, BtnTR, BtnTL2, BtnTR2, BtnSelect, BtnStart, BtnMode, BtnThumbL, BtnThumbR, ?).

Testing ... (interrupt to exit)

Axes:  0:-32767  1:-32767  2:-32767  3:-32767  4:     0  5:     0 Buttons:  0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off  5:off  6:off  7:off  8:off  9:off 10:off 11:off 12:off

My keymap is based on the PS3 Remote pad which almost worked out of the box, however I wanted to modify some of the context specific keys as I was not getting to DVD menus, so I added the section at the end for "<VideoMenu>", which seems to allow me to navigate the DVD menus.

However once the video plays, I can not seem to get Pause and FF and REW to work (on the buttons I want) when the video is playing and I think this refers to the "<FullscreenVideo>" section

joystick.xml in next post

Thanks for any help
