please, i've had this problem trough alpha 2-3 and 4

i can get osd video menu to show with my xbox remote. i have checked my
keymap many times. if i move my mouse osd menu shows.

what am i doing wrong.

[jmarshall]

Are you pressing the <menu> button?

[xbbs]

me too, pressing the "menu" button, XBMC menu won't show up.

[sho]

Are you looking at keymap in the userdata or system folder?

[The-Boxhead]

i'm sure that i got the correct userdata folder.
gonna do one more check

[jmarshall]

You are running on windows. Sorry, I did not realize that. It could well be due to whatever you're using to drive the remote (IRSS ?)

[The-Boxhead]

i run the remote xbmc 2.0 program.
It's strange, the "menu" button work everywhere else in xbmc, so i know that the button is mapped correctly. it's just that when it comes to osd it isn't workiing.

But you could be right, there can be the xbmc remote app that has some weirdness to it...

[sho]

i'm sure that i got the correct userdata folder.
gonna do one more check

For default keymapping you don't need a keymap file in the userdata folder.
Perhaps you should rename or delete it to eliminate the remote possibility it is screwing with the keymapping? (keymap.xml is in system now, the userdata one is only meant for user changes).

I have now tried without any custom keymap, just the org one.
Still same problem. I also noticed something more.
If i bring up the OSD menu with the mouse, then push "menu" on my remote the osd goes away.. but it doesent show when i press menu again.

This is strange-can it be a bug ?

[The-Boxhead]

even more info.

This xbmc log is from when i started Wall-E and pressed "menu" button alotta times, then pressed stop button. (on the remote)

Is there something wrong ? should onkey 61467 have action 10 ??

[The-Boxhead]

if i move the mouse i get this:

PHP Code:

00:06:20 T:992 M:1575378944   DEBUG: CApplication::OnKey: 61467 pressed, action is 51 


i can see that moving the mouse gives the same onkey as pushing the remote "menu" button but the avtion is 51 instead of 10

[The-Boxhead]

any clues to what i can do to fix this ? im a desperat man

[althekiller]

You could map the action to a different button in keymap.xml.

The actions change based on what window you're in.

[The-Boxhead]

Gonna try to map to another button later. thanks for the idea !
This is really driving me insane

[The-Boxhead]

i tried to change button mapping in keymap xml file under the <videomenu/>
like this:

PHP Code:

<remote>
      <menu>OSD</menu>
      <back>PreviousMenu</back>
      <info>Info</info>
      <title>CodecInfo</title>
      <zero>OSD</zero>
      <one>Number1</one>
      <two>Number2</two>
      <three>Number3</three>
      <four>Number4</four>
      <five>Number5</five>
      <six>Number6</six>
      <seven>Number7</seven>
      <eight>Number8</eight>
      <nine>Number9</nine>
</remote> 


But pressing "zero" stil seems like it just jumps to bookmark. so it seems that xbmc doesent pick up my changes ?

I did try to put keymap.xml both in my c:\program files\xbmc\userdata and under the userdata folder in documents&settings. no go.
