I am not able to get some of the keys to work on my Beelink S82 (aka Tronsmart S95) remote (using an MXQ S805 box). They are: Power, Home, Volume, Mouse, Menu. When I try reading codes for these buttons with the "dmesg -c" command in terminal, nothing happens. None of those keys gets returned. Not even the keys on the Beelink remote that do work under LE. Only the keys the MXQ's stock Visson remote get return codes in terminal. Is there a trick to this I am missing?

What LE Version are you using ??
Are you running LE Via SD Card boot with Android still internally.?? -

Are you running LE Via SD Card boot with Android still internally.??I mention the chip, its an Amlogic S805. So I'm using the latest build of LE for this chip, v.8.0.1a, via SD card boot with Android internally. The box brand is MXQ (OTT).

Picture of your remote please.

Well, I should be on the latest version of Kodi for the S805 chip; 8.0.1a. But before this version, I had installed the 8.0g and 8.0b versions; and they had the same result: which is while the Beelink/Tronsmart remote does work with these editions of LE, half the buttons don't. However, under Android on the MXQ box, all buttons on this remote does work. So I copied the Android remote.conf file, and I am posting it here (see below). I am hoping I can just add codes from this file to the LE default config file. But I don't know which codes in the remote.conf file correspond to which keys on the remote.
In fact, I don't even know where LE is storing its default remote configuration. I do not see a remote.conf file in the .configfiles directory, or any of its subdirectories. Moreover, it seems that whenever I try to install my own remote.conf file in the .configfiles directory, no matter what remote.conf file it is, both remotes stop working in LE! So I have to figure out what's happening there, before I can even think about changing the default remote configuration.
Picture of your remote please.
My remote is the Beelink S82/Tronsmart S95. It looks similar to this.

I don't see where I did that?
DEFAULT REMOTE.CONF CONFIG FILE FROM ANDROID (WHICH PROPERLY OPERATES BOTH BEELINK & VISSON REMOTES):
(n.b. This remote.conf file is found in the system/etc folder of the Android system on the OTT MXQ S805 Kodi box. It is meant to control the Visson S82 remote. But with the USB dongle for the Beelink remote installed, the box works perfectly controlling all of the buttons on this secondary remote, alongside the default remote).
