I am kinda stuck with configuring my remote and could use some help. I am using an Logitech Harmony configured as an generic MCE remote for kodi. everything is working as it should, but i cannot get two of the buttons to behave.
I have defined the buttons in a lircd.conf, i named the remote “Harmony” and the buttons are named “Guide” and “Info” with the correct codes, and “irw” on the commandline is detecting them :
kodi@mce:~# irw
0000000077e1d099 00 Info Harmony
0000000077e1d099 01 Info Harmony
0000000077e1a0b9 00 Guide Harmony
0000000077e1a0b9 01 Guide Harmony
0000000077e1a0b9 02 Guide Harmony
On the kodi side, they are defined in a lircmap.xml
<lircmap>
<remote device="Harmony">
.....
<Guide>Guide</Guide>
<Info>Info</Info>
.....
</remote>
</lircmap>
Kodi seems to detect the button press according to the kodi.log with debugging enabled:
2024-05-23 23:24:01.049 T:13 debug <general>: LIRC: - NEW 0000000077e1d099 00 Info Harmony (Info)
2024-05-23 23:24:01.055 T:7 debug <general>: HandleKey: 0 (0x0, obc255) pressed, window 10025, action is
and i have added them to a harmony.xml keymap using the name “info” and the obc255 displayed in the logging
<keymap>
<!-- Blue toggles watched indicator -->
<!-- Yellow will toggle the library views between 'show everything' and 'show watched only' -->
<Global>
<remote>
<blue>ToggleWatched</blue>
<yellow>SendClick(25,14)</yellow>
<info>ContextMenu</info>
<guide>ContextMenu</guide>
</remote>
<universalremote>
<obc255>ContextMenu</obc255>
</universalremote>
</Global>
</keymap>
but the contextmenu is not activated when i press the info button (the red button does open the menu, so i know the keymap is working.)
