Remote Control (SL-6399) Configuration (2 Viewers)

[alexisbatman]

I want to scream!!! I cant work out any of this. My SL6399 works with MP to a small extent. The arrow buttons worked and then I played EventGhost and KeyboardImputPlugin and now its all messed up the controls so that the down keyloads the menu and up loads the TV Guide. No idea how I did this because I never meant to change these.

1 > Can I restore the original settings??! How? please go slowly - im so lost.

2 > Can someone walk me through how to assign buttons because I' just not getting it.


Sorry for being so thick!

I did itttttttt!


Step 4
Go to the MP Configuration->General->Keys and Sounds. (I don't know if you can back up the settings, but do so if necessary)
Remove all the Windows and Global Actions.
and...

Step 6
Quote Readme:
Button Definitions and mappings

Using the Configuration screens of the plugin (accessed through the MediaPortal Setup program), one can modify both the button definitions and the button to action mappings. Usually you should start with adding button definitions (unless you already have a keyboard.xml file with existing button definitions available, for example for your HID remote) and afterwards perform the button to action mapping. The button to action mapping process is the same as for the regular MediaPortal remote button mapping process, so is not described in further detail here.

I'm stuck. I dont have a Keys and Sounds section. Is that my version of MP? (How do I find this info?)

Button definitions....

WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? (Im trying to get the green home button my my SL6399 remote to function - for example).

1. Currently, I go to MP config,

2. Find the KeyboardInputPlugin and open the config menu.

3. click on Add Remove Buttons

4. I give the button a name 'Home1' and then press a button on my keyboard eg 'b' which is button code 66.

5. click add and then the save and close button.

6. Then I click on the mapping button

7. All the Asus Remote buttons (most of which my SL remote has) are listed.

8. I go to the entry called home (I havent created this its here already) and all the commands seem right. ( I havent changed anything) - There's no sign of my home1 button I have created anywhere so god knows what the point of creating that was!?

9. So I click 'home' and 'all layers' and 'no conditions'. Window"Home" is selected already. (which i assume means that if i press the home button on any screen in MP it will take me to the home screen?)

10. I close the config menu saving as I go, not that Ive actually edited or changed anything in the mapping section.

11. I load MP. Nothing has changed. I imagine this is because I havent changed anything!

12. WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO CHANGE?!?!?!?!

13. How does creating a new button tie in with the mapping? How do i assign that new button (the home button on my remote) to the list in KeyboardInputPlugin.

14. Its absolutely maddening!!!!! Im going to kill some one!!!!!

Sorry but after hours of reading forums and trying to do this I am at my wits end.

By all means treat me like a complete idiot when explaining. I think I need it.

Pleeeease help!

Hi to all in the great forum here.

One question to the speedlink-remote, is it also possible after remapping all buttons to get it into an logitech harmony?

Please answer with yes?!

cheers

I have just updated to MP RC2, and now i can't do this: "Step 4
Go to the MP Configuration->General->Keys and Sounds. (I don't know if you can back up the settings, but do so if necessary)
Remove all the Windows and Global Actions"

It seems that this option is no longer available, it means that every time i press up or down on my remote, the cursor moves two steps in stead of one.

Help please

You can remove the actions for Up, Down, Enter, ... in the Mapping settings of your remote

How can i do that? in the MP configuration? But if i do that, will i still be able to use those functions? Becaus i need them, the problem is that the remote "duplicates" my instructions, for example: 2x up; 2x down; 2x left; etc...

Just tried to remove the action "up" but it still moves "2x up" when i press it

maybe you have to activate "expert mode" of Mediaportal Configuration (right upper corner), this gives you further options free.

to All,

this "MEDIAPORTAL - free MediaCenter HTPC Software - KeyBoardInputPlugin" is running

But one question is it possible to add a comand to change the zoom, so that I just click on my rc to change the default view to normal, zoom etc. ?
Maybe someone can help me !?

I already set the "MORE" button to 93 but that's not working !

OK ... it's working now, I had to change the keyboard.xml directly.
By changing the setup at MediaPortal Config, the changes are OK at the keyboard plugin but they are not saved in keyboard.xml directly ... and YES I clicked "Save and close" !
