Customising START Button Has No Effect
I tried to customise the action of the START button on the Microsoft MCE remote, but could not get it to work.

The Ortek/Hama has a button labelled CLOSE, and by default it sends ALT_F4 (i.e. immediate exit). In the "Centarea HID" I have defined this to invoke the SHUTDOWN action (it displays a pop-up menu with a list of choices).

Microsoft MCE does not have a dedicated CLOSE button, so I tried to define the action of the START button to invoke the SHUTDOWN action if the user was already on the "Home" panel. This is the definition that I created, but it does not work:

Should this work?
