Thanks for providing this guide. I'm new here but the screenshots are not available. Can you provide an alternate link to the screenshot images?

So if I ever need, I can exit out of XBMC (teach it a sequence), or start it up.

It's weird... All of the MCE Remote commands are working just fine, but I can't get MCE Keyboard to do anything. I have a Harmony One, and would like to setup a subtitle toggle in the additional buttons menu, but in order for me to do that I have to have the MCE Keyboard working, the subtitle option for the MCE Remote doesn't do anything. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
And then vanOert responds with:
Those special keys are not mapped in XBMC to the ones WMC uses. Have a look at the keyboard.xml to figure it out.

Harmony 880 (been a user for years)
Streamzap IR Reciever
XBMC on Win7 Box
Programmed Harmony with the MCE Keyboard options and customized the buttons.
I cannot get any Keyboard strokes to work via Harmony.
I read through this whole thread and on page 9 there is this info:
So is the guide on page one for WMC or for XBMC?
I run XBMC do I have to edit the keyboard.xml file to get this to work?
For example I want to map the Info button to the keystroke I
Many thanks in advance ...
dugan26 Wrote:So I just found this regarding the streamzap in a remote control forum:
StreamZap is a nonstandard extension of the RC5 protocol. The MCE protocol is a nonstandard extension of the RC6 protocol.
They are not the same protocol.
An MCE does not natively understand the Streamzap protocol.
I understand that someone was able to control his MCE using the Streamzap protocol. I assume that required adding to the MCE hardware and/or software that was purchased with the StreamZap remote.
I guess im out of luck ... but if i did have a RC6 receiver, the following config should just work?
Can you recommend one to buy?
Quote:The streamzap remote is indeed a modified rc5 one. But the receiver is generic, it has a little bit of a low sampling frequency but you can use most remote controls with it.
