Hi all,


I'm currently looking into the sources that SilentException stored in SVN and working on the following:

  • Some more clean-up of the code
  • Fix some bugs in the current code-base:
    • Duplicate key problem (keys handled both by KeyboardInputPlugin and MediaPortal standard keymap)
    • It looks like a simple Alt+<key> isn't handled by the plug-in (note that Alt together with Control and/or Shift modifier keys is handled)
    • Anything else?
  • Create a MediaPortal Extension Installer package
  • Test the plug-in on my own HTPC system


The new version will basically have the same functionality as the last version by SilentException. Most notably:

  • MediaPortal 1.1.0 is supported
  • Most keys (with or without Control, Alt and Shift modifier keys) should be mappable. Win-key will not be supported as a modifier key in this version.


I hope to have a new (test) version out in a couple of days, not sure though whether the listed bugs will be fixed by then.


A request to all of you; if you have a working keyboard.xml for your remote, please upload it to SVN at https://mp-plugins.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mp-plugins/trunk/plugins/KeyboardInputPlugin/Release/InputDeviceMappings/defaults/Remote/<remote name>/keyboard.xml (or send it to me).


Update: An early test version containing the bugs mentioned above is available at https://mp-plugins.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/mp-plugins/trunk/plugins/KeyboardInputPlugin/MPE/KeyboardInputPlugin.mpe1. I haven't tested this version myself yet, so only use it if you really need to.
