I just purchased this remote, i'm currently using the default Kodi keys etc.

However I'm wondering if someone would share their own key file for this if possible?

The defaults are OK, but I think theirs room for improvement. One of the keys needs to be assigned to do what TAB does, but I can't figure this out for optimal use etc

Hi thepixel

FWIW this is the Keymap file i use. This may give you some idea on how to set up your remote to your preference.
Also you can reference post No 4 for the keycodes for the different buttons on the remote.
I also use Auto Hot key to add extra functionality to the remote but this is only available for Windows based systems.
If you get stuck on some functionality myself or others should be able to point you in the right direction
A full list of Kodi actions and functions can be found here http://kodi.wiki/view/Keymaps

Hi Dasco,

Thanks for sharing your keymap, not wanting to add them to my keymap without understanding what they do, I have some queries. Some are obvious such as:-

Stop
Back
Launch chrome
Update video library
Activate Favourites window

Some not so obvious to me and would appreciate a bit more info:-

<key id="61587">runaddon(script.globalsearch)</key> "Red Key"
<key id="53255">ActivateWindow(Home)</key> "Home Button"
<key id="61589">FullScreen</key> "Yellow Button This is the TAB function"
<key id="61590">audiodelay</key> "Blue Key"

I am sure you know this I only recently found out, some of the keys on the keyboard can be used as shortcuts in Kodi, the ones I use are:-

x - stop whatever is playing
s - display option to go into settings, I use this as I share my build with my sister and remove the System option from the top level Kodi menu as a safety feature
o - display codec info, lets you see some useful information when streaming, CPU usage, how fast or slow the cache buffer is filling
I - display program information on what you are watching

QUICK EDIT - with reference to above I am using Kodi 16.1, Kodi 17 may act differently
