I've got an mceusb remote working in XBMC. I configured my remote using the Arch wiki's guide for XBMC and mceusb remote, and using "irw" shows all buttons functioning correctly. I would like to configure the "Replay" button with the action "PreviousMenu", but according to this wiki entry the "Replay" button does not have a keyname recognised by XBMC.

I've easily configured other actions for buttons that have a recognised keyname, and it seemed straightforward to create other keynames. But if I push "Replay" the output in the debug log is

Code:

18:11:30 T:139919221331904   DEBUG: LIRC: Update - NEW at 30638:000000037ff07be4 00 Replay mceusb (Replay)
18:11:30 T:139919221331904   DEBUG: OnKey: pause (0xdd) pressed, action is SkipPrevious

How can this information be used to create the action "PreviousMenu" for the replay button?

I'm having similar trouble with the "Guide" button, I want a particular action (show Playlist and then go back) when music is playing. The space bar on the keyboard does this, so I can copy the format in my keyboard.xml. and put it in my ~/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml. The debug log shows

Code:

18:11:36 T:139919221331904   DEBUG: LIRC: Update - NEW at 36960:000000037ff07bd9 00 Guide mceusb (Guide)
18:11:36 T:139919221331904   DEBUG: OnKey: 229 (0xe5) pressed, action is ContextMenu

but adding

Code:

<key id="229">Playlist</key>

still shows the context menu. What am I doing wrong with this one?

Okay, solution was that I needed to find the correct name for the keys. The button marked "Replay" on the MCEUSB remote needs the tag <skipminus> and the button marked "Guide" on the MCEUSB remote needs the tag <title>.
