I use the following to find the keypresses: http://voxcommando.com/forum/index.php?topic=104.0;wap2
and map them to these commands:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Keymap.xml
and put them in keyboard.xml located:
/storage/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps
This is the file I use to give it the same functionality as an Apple Remote (i.e. change the volume using the up and down arrow etc.)
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<key id="61467">ParentDir</key>
</keyboard>
</global>
<FullscreenVideo>
<keyboard>
<key id="61453">Pause</key>
<key id="61480">VolumeDown</key>
<key id="61478">VolumeUp</key>
<key id="61467">Stop</key>
</keyboard>
</FullscreenVideo>
</keymap>
The only thing I havent figured out is if you can do long presses. Also, as I am a Linux noob, there might be a better method.
Thanks for sharing, it looks great i shall test it out.
Long presses has to be added to the keymap.xml also if i am right. Maybey you can check other keymaps that uses long presses.
