Hi Warner,
Thanks again for your support, so far i have 2 devices, intel nuc and mce keyboard, ive create a new activity "watch tv", it seems none of the mce keyboard commands work with intel nuc / kodi. if i just use the intel nuc device i dont get all of the commands i need. to be totally honest im not sure i understand the keyboard.xml

Hello again,
OK, ive installed showkey on the nuc and set up a windows MCE keyboard as a device on the Harmony remote,
for a test i assigned the info key on my remote to "I" on the keyboard, absoolutly nothing happens on show key, i then used my intel remove on my phone and pressed "i" and i get Key ID: 231 (oxE7) - VK_PACKET = <i>Notification(Key,i,3)
So it seems the microsoft MCE keybaord does not even register key strokes with the nuc.
The only device that seems to work is Microsoft Media Centre, but im missing many commands such as i, page down, page up ect.
Help lol

Use the MCE Keyboard addon to allow those functions in Kodi, should work like a charm (as I have a NUC with both the MCE Keyboard and Microsoft Media Extender in my Logitech profile, and made the additional functions work, using the MCE Keyboard addon (Info, Back, DVR, Guide, etc) within Kodi.
