MMm... i used a combo of winlirc, a generic remote, a diy serial IR receiver and eventghost to handle XBMC. Too much stuff imho, so i was glad to see that Camelot *should* handle MCE remotes out of the box.

I bought off ebay the only MCE remote i could find (avoiding cheap "generic" clones) and i got hold of this:



Of course, the XP (sp3) machine refused to recognize it: fiddling here and there with google, i found how to modify the standard irbus.inf to recognize this remote too, and worked.

So, i launched XMBC full of hope and.... nothing.
Well, maybe i'm missing something in the remote.xml config, so i seached more, all the entries in the forum and the wiki.

Downloaded the mceremote.zip and tested with the remote logger. Well, it only shows a 4 or 5 keys of the remote (play, for instance), none of the other. Tried the two included regfiles, no results.

Of course, XBMC doesn't recognize even the play command.

The MCE plugin in Event Ghost, instead, recognizes every single key of the remote, so i'm again on the starting point: i *still* have to use eventghost

Any ideas, hints?

thanks.
