New remote configuration

  • Hi there, i'm new to Libreelec, and i have some questions...

    I'm moving from a Raspberry pi2 with osmc to a Raspberry pi4 with Libreelec. on this pi2 i was using the remote control from Vero 4k and all was working ok, when i changed to raspberry pi4, i noticed that the remote control wasn't working as should, some keys didn't worked.

    Looking at the OSMC forum, i see how to create a new "device" with the configs of the remote:

    This should be the osmcrf.hwdb, when i tried to create this file i had no success, how can i create a new profile of peripheral?

    After that i have to configure the key mappings, in order to get all the keys working.

    Is there any simple way to do this on libreelec?

    Thanks in advance

  • You can do key mapping by creating /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/remote.xml. Example:

    Code
    <keymap>
        <global>
            <remote>
                <red>VolumeDown</red>
                <green>VolumeUp</green>
            </remote>
        </global>
    </keymap>
