I'm trying to map my Red/Yellow/Green/Blue buttons on Samsung telly remote to keys like c/i/o/ESC so that I can pull up context menus/info etc. in xbmc. I've installed a great app from market called "multilanguage keymap remapper" and inside that it recognised the telly remote keypresses and I can map them to an Android key presses, e.g. I've set red up as:
Device:cec_input #1
ScanCode:398
KeyCode:31
KeyConst:C
IsRemapped:true
IsForced:false
[etc]
Now when I go to a text input in Android, and press red, it inputs a 'c'. But when I do the same in a textfield in xbmc, it's not recognised, in fact none of them are. Any idea what's going on?
I want to crack this as I'm 98% there towards having a fully functional (inc FF/RW) xbmc from telly remote, which as folks will realise is very important in a living room environment. ;-)
