You can fully control XBMC with any Universal Infrared Remote (IR-remote), however on the Xbox you still need the Microsoft Xbox IR-receiver-dongle that you get with the [[Xbox DVD-Remote|Xbox DVD-Remote Kit]]. The XBox DVD remote uses the RCA VCR/DVD player codes from the RCA protocol, so simply follow the instructions that came with your Universal Remote on how to set it to "RCA".

'''Important Information for Xbox users!''' All the below information assumes that you are using the IR dongle from the original Xbox Movie Playback DVD Kit.
If you are not, most of the information still applies except the IR codes themselves may be different. (Clone IR kits may not necessarily use the RCA IR standard).  You can see if you are using the original by looking at the sticker on the back of your dongle. The Microsoft product will have the name of the product, Microsoft's address and partnumber.
 
==Custom Keymapping==
You can define the keys of the remote as you like, by adding or editing the "XBMC\UserData\[[Keymap.xml]]" file.<br>
 
'''XBox Only!''' To figure out what code your remote control is sending to XBMC when you press a button, enable the [[advancedsettings.xml#.3Cdisplayremotecodes.3E|<displayremotecodes>]] setting in [[advancedsettings.xml]].
