If the remote is being picked up as a keyboard then just remap the keyboard.xml to the keys that your remote is set to.

Say, for instance, you have a button mapped to <K> that you'd like to be the play button. Just map <K> to the play function in keyboard.xml and your remote should work.

look in XBMC's wiki

It has all the player functions and what they are mapped to in there.
