This is the MINIX NEO A2 Remote. It has a full QWERTY keyboard on the back, which allows the use of the Search function in KODI. |
Customized MINIX NEO A2 mouse.xml
<keymap> <global> <mouse> <leftclick>Select</leftclick> <rightclick>Back</rightclick> <middleclick>noop</middleclick> <doubleclick id="0">noop</doubleclick> <longclick id="0">noop</longclick> <wheeldown>noop</wheeldown> <wheelup>noop</wheelup> <mousedrag>noop</mousedrag> <mousemove>noop</mousemove> <mousedragend>Select</mousedragend> <mouserdragend>Back</mouserdragend> </mouse> </global> </keymap>
Customized MINIX NEO A2 keyboard.xml (additions)
If there are multiple keymap entries for the same key name, the last entry wins.
I recommend placing manual entries at the end of the <keyboard> stanza inside <global>
This saves us the effort of finding and editing each original key assignment
.... <F2>NextSubtitle</F2> <home>AudioNextLanguage</home> <return>SendClick(8)</return> <F1>Stop</F1> <prev_track>PageUp</prev_track> <next_track>PageDown</next_track> </keyboard> </global> ....
keyboard.xml per Window customization
Another valuable tool when editing keyboard.xml: there are subsections which allow you to re-assign keys while in a particular 'Window'.
For example let's look this default entry:
.... <FullscreenVideo> <keyboard> .... <return>OSD</return> .... </keyboard> </FullscreenVideo>
While a video is playing (fullscreen) the <return> key will bring up the OSD, instead of executing SendClick(8) as assigned in <global>
If this behaviour is not desired, an additional manual entry is required in the relevant subsection.
keyboard.xml per Window customization, refining remote actions
Earlier I reassigned the <return> key within the <global> section of keyboard.xml.
This had one negative side effect: After manually entering text, pressing <return> would not submit the text.
The solution is to modify the action of the <return> key while in the VirtualKeyboard Window.
Add one line to the <VirtualKeyboard> section of keyboard.xml
<VirtualKeyboard> <keyboard> .... <return>Select</return> .... </keyboard> </VirtualKeyboard>
