SavellM Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Hey Guys, Just got Flirc and its great fun. Programmed it up easily using Manufacturer: Samsung Device: LN46C650L1F All buttons programmed using the XBMC Controller. The only button is Power. When I press the power button on the remote my TV/AMP and everything turns off but not XBMC. I am using OpenELEC. How do I program the power button? I tried using the power button on the XBMC controller and then pressing the power button on the remote activity but it doesnt work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris! Posted July 7, 2013 Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 It is possible. You're probably going to have to mess about with the keyboard.xml file. I'm enjoying the surprisingly nice British weather today so not really at my computer for long. In the meantime, does this thread help? : If not post back and i'll help when I'm back at my computer :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SavellM Posted July 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2013 Thanks Chris. I will try. Still a little confused but will try figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trza2k Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 I just did this for openelec. Need to create a new file on the openelec system here: /storage/.xbmc/userdata/keymaps/keymap.xml And add the following <keymap> <global> <keyboard> <s>XBMC.Shutdown</s> </keyboard> </global> </keymap> Where <s></s> is your programmed key to perform shutdown. In this case i used "s". I also set shutdown to suspend in XBMC so it can powered back on via the remote. I was unsure what key is set when using shutdown from the FLIRC GUI using the XBMC controller, so i just mapped the shutdown to "s" using the keyboard controller in the GUI.

Taco Truck Posted August 10, 2013 Report Share Posted August 10, 2013 This is what I want. I want to be able to turn off my TV using the power button when under the aux device button (programmed to XBMC). How can I do that? When I select the power button on the control through the Harmony website I am not given the option to assigning the button to my TV the way I am with the volume buttons. Any help? Thank you. Also, any chance of making "menu" the home button? I'm on a Rasperry Pi by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
