Hello,

I am probably stupid. I have so far failed to get this plugin to work for me

The remote I have (Moneual) does most of what I need it to. But there are a couple of keys I need to change.

For example, the info key. On my keyboard, pressing Y brings up info about the TV programme. I want to be able do this from the remote. But the info key issues F10 which does nothing

So, I have installed your plugin and I have got to the point where I have the mappings screen. All the keys initially display None (as per your documentation)
Selecting Generic Buttons, Info, all layers, No condition, I now get to the point where I can show:

Name: Generic Buttons
Name: Info
Key: Y
Layer: All
No Condition box ticked
Action box ticked
Drop down box 'Show Info'
Sound None

I can save & close

Start MediaPortal, the remote info button does nothing

Go back and get the plugin config screen up - test the remote Info Key - and it transmits F10 (as before) when I want it to be understood as Y

Perhaps I have completely misunderstood the whole process (highly likely). Any words of wisdom?
