Good to know the plug-in works quite well for you. Unfortunately, the plug-in is currently only able to intercept regular key press events, where-as your remote seems to emulate power button and mouse button events for the keys that you mention.

I think I've read somewhere on these forums that some remotes have a key (or accompanying software) to switch between multiple modes, where in one mode the info/more button sends a right mouse button click, and in another mode sends a regular keypress. I'm not completely sure about this however; just did a quick search but couldn't find any relevant posts.

If that doesn't work, you could just assign the info/more functionality to some button that you don't use regularly. Maybe I could add mouse button handling to the plug-in some time in the future if more people need it. Not sure though whether that's easy to do.
