[SOLVED] FLIRC and the KODI keyboard shortcuts

    Please correct me if I am wrong: FLIRC could be described is a keyboard emulator. It translate signales from a infraret remote control into keyboard commands (e.g. the arrow keys, ENTER, ...) right? So KODI doesn't know that there is a remote control. It only "see" buttons pressed on a keyboard, right?

    I configured my One-4-All remote with a "Microsoft" code out of the codebook. Then I used the FLIRC software to setup each(!) key in the "KODI" key map. No problems at this point. I can definitly say that all keys on the remote are mapped in FLIRC because FLIRC gave succuess message and the button light on the remote is wokring when I press the button.

    But KODI doesn't react on all buttons (e.g. switch off, fullscreen) on the remote.

    There are a lot of keyboard shortcuts for KODI. But how can I tell FLIRC which of the shortscuts should be emulated when pressing a specific button on the remote? And before that I first would check which shortcuts does FLIRC on the current setup.

    I won't suggest editing the xml file. I found a solution in the FLIRC forum.

    When using non-US keyboard-layout it doesn't work by default. You have to map the keys one by one. And you have to map them twice when using e.g. a One-4-All because there are always two different signals on the same button. This is described in the FLIRC help articles.

    Can you point me to this article? Not really need it but good to know :)

    And I had to adjust xml file because I add some scripts running on key press.
