i perfer the remote
[code]<!-- this file contains the mapping of keys (gamepad, remote and keyboard) to actions within xbmc -->
<!-- the <global> section is a fall through - they will only be used if the button is not -->
<!-- used in the current window's section. note that there is only handling -->
<!-- for a single action per button at this stage. -->
<!-- the format is: -->
<!-- <device> -->
<!-- <button>action</button> -->
<!-- </device> -->
<!-- the <remotecode> blocks are only needed if you intend to map buttons from other remotes. -->
<!-- in this case, the remotecodes are the obcs (original button codes) in the rca 5 protocol -->
<!-- and you'd set it up by adding a <remotecode> block to the <remap> or <global> section: -->
<!-- <remotecode> -->
<!-- <45>stop</45> -->
<!-- </remotecode> -->
<!-- note that the action can be a built-in function. -->
<!-- eg <b>xbmc.activatewindow(mymusic)"</b> -->
<!-- would automatically go to my music on the press of the b button. -->
