[QUOTE="Lyfesaver74, post: 683237, member: 107242"] For the past 4 months I have been using this very common remote found all over the world for under $10. I wanted to share the remote and its mapping for the keyboardremoteinput plugin that will make it essentially plug and play. And the mouse function is built into the Remote for instant mouse use. The remote is made in China but sold throughout the world under different model numbers. PHX01RN or W-01RN to name a few. If you just want a good working remote that will do all essential functions as well as a plethora of additional ones then this is an awesome deal. Here is a link from one US seller for $9.00, but many more can be found on Ebay from AU, US, UK, CA and Asian retailers.

I now currently use 4 of these remotes on all my MP clients. Attached I have included the mappings for the remote to be used with the keyboardinput plugin. Just extract the Keyboard.xml file to your /Program Data/Team Mediaportal/MediaPortal/InputDevicesMappings/ folder after you have installed the plugin. Here also is a few notes on the mappings. The Asterisk (*) is mapped for Aspect Ratio The "i" button is mapped to Info and the Pound (#) is mapped to Menu for dual effect The Yellow "Email" button is mapped to "Recorded TV" the Green "www" button I left set to "WebBrower" Everything else is set as it should be. EDIT: 9$ link got old and needed to be replaced. New link is for the same remote but for 15$. This remote can be found on EBay for around 8$, but as you know links go dead after the timer has expired so no point in using ebay as a link. EDIT: This link is for two of the remotes for 15$, but it ships from China so it takes 10 days.
