KeyboardInputPlugin is a MediaPortal plug-in. Using a similar mapping mechanism as used for remote controls, one can map arbitrary key presses to MediaPortal actions, windows, etc. As opposed to the regular MediaPortal key mapping mechanism this plug-in takes the Control, Alt, Shift and Win modifier keys into account, and allows more elaborate mappings.
Updated version 2.0.0.0 (Nov 4, 2008)
Changes since last version:
- Changed key interception mechanism:
- Captures virtually all key combinations, including Win-keys.
- Keystrokes that are mapped by this plug-in will be ‘eaten’; they will not be passed on to MediaPortal, so no more ‘double’ key presses or the need to remove MediaPortal’s keymap.xml.
- (Limited) support for passing through keystrokes that are not mapped by this plug-in.
- Integrated ‘Add/Remove Buttons’ and ‘Button Mapping’ configuration screens into single configuration screen.
- Added support for mapping keystrokes to plug-in windows (as opposed to only standard MediaPortal windows).
- Respects MediaPortal configuration paths; no more need to copy Keyboard.xml around and should work correctly with Windows Vista.
The plugin is available on the MediaPortal website:
