When I press the next track on the remote the Kodi player fast forwards.
Am I doing someting wrong? Configured the remote, I have buttons set up for fast forward and rewind.
Thanks for any help.

Yes, I managed to find the key mapping screen, I tried using the round cursor button to skip tracks. To no avail, watching the Kodi player the cursor goes from icon to icon when I press the remote buttons.
Very frustrating, having spent 60 quid on a remote and Flerc dongle. I was surprised ithe remote actually worked actually works, but when I press next track, it goes fast forward.
Very few options on the software for playing music on your PC, Kodi and Plex.

Have you programmed the FLIRC dongle? I don't own one but I thought the whole point is that the dongle provides the mapping from received IR signal to a standard keyboard key press. So it seem to me that the dongle reacts with an f key for fast forward when you press that button on the remote, so you use FLIRC software to change it to Ctrl f for skip next.

would also be good to know which remote you are trying to use - are we talking about the SKIP1 from FLIRC or some other remote?

It is the Skip 1 remote and the Flirc dongle Gen 2.
Was not aware you could do anything with the dongle, I just stiuck in my PC USB port.
Yep there is a download on the Flirc page, windows defender does not like it.
Thanks, I will see what is possible with the driver installed.
