OK - got it figured out. Works beautifully now. Read the following link very carefully. Excellent tutorial. Basically, the base files that control the mapping of IR codes to XBMC commands (lircmap.xml) and then the mapping of the XBMC commands to actual actions (remote.xml) are in a spot that I can't see through an SMB share so you have to SSH in and copy them out to a folder that you can see them and from there you can basically do whatever you want.

I read the info but it seems to just be how to map commands that IRW recognises, to XBMC labels and then further XBMC labels to XBMC actions. I thought the problem was that "MCE Keyboard" IR codes were not being recognised by IRW?
