As explained in the FAQ, XMBC uses mouse hooks which can not distinguish between devices. It is not possible to have different settings per device.

Firstly, I suspect the problem button is the chord button (MB5) not the wheel - bouncing on the wheel is very unlikely to ever be noticed because the wheel is not a button and sends messages differently anyway (it does not have a Pressed/Released sequence, just a one off "I scrolled a notch&quo...

I didn't see the post - sorry, Ive been away over the last few weekends and must have missed it (strange it didn't show up in notifications when I checked last night - its possible I somehow cleared it from my mobile while out and intoxicated (B) :lol:). Button held works as such: When the button is...

Debug logging will help (me) see if the chord button is getting released or not when it goes wrong. I have had mouse buttons fail (dirty switch contacts usually) and when they do, they can send spurious messages, so even though you are still pressing it, it may be "bouncing" on and off.......

Interesting... Are both windows part of the same process (maybe separate windows in the same process)? It seems to be going up the window tree, until it gets to the top, but the top appears to already be active, so its trying to activate the already active window. This may be the problem, if the two...

Hi, I wonder if there are any error messages in the log... If not, can you try turning on debug logging (settings -> updates & logging tab). OK and APPLY that, then try again (reproduce the problem). Then send me the log file. It will be very verbose, so make a note of the time you do the test, ...

But you didn't answer the other questions I asked. XMBC is a hobby, and I don't have time to waste trying to guess things. If I ask a question, its because I need to know so I can devote some of my precious spare time to answering it. So if you don't answer, why should I devote my precious spare tim...

Yes, as a user you shouldn't care. But its not working - so you do care - and I was just explaining. Actually you might care if you were playing games too because many games block software injected keys (as it can be used for cheating). I have actually started playing with a hardware solution for XM...

Sorry, no this program is for configuring and remapping mouse buttons (it's kind'a in the name!).
I'm afraid it wont do that. You might want to look at something like Autohotkey.

It can send scancodes, that's the fall back position if it cant decode virtual keycodes from the characters. But getting the scancode from a character is even more tricky and still depends on knowing the keyboard layout to do so. Hardware works without knowing the layout, but XMBC is software, calli...

No, to use the SendInput API, it has to send the virtual keycodes (or scancodes), which differ from the characters. So XMBC has to translate the character to the keycodes. To do that, it uses standard API calls, but they require to know the language. So if the current language is not the language th...

Here is 2.21 Beta 26. Changes since 2.21 Beta 25 (above): #840 - Fixed another error causing {VOL+}/{VOL-} to not be sent even after the change in 2.21 Beta 22. #791 - Further changes to try and prevent XMBC from crashing in the audio/volume manager when resuming from sleep and/or after changing the...

Here is 2.21 Beta 25. Its been a while, and there is some interesting/exciting (for some) new stuff in here, which I'll talk about later... Changes since 2.21 Beta 24 (above): #842 - Another attempt to fix issue with simkeys failing (particularly after resuming from sleep with non English key layout...

OK so I have a few ideas, 1. First idea... If it fails, to enumerate all the installed layouts and see if any translate the character to a keycode. That might work, but there is a risk it might get it wrong, if multiple languages may the character to a different key code. 2. Secondly, store the keyb...

OK can you send (PM) me the whole log with that in it? I want to see if the layout referenced is the same as when it was started up.... EDIT: Also, if you disable XMBC and then re-enable it (using the enable/disable on the CONTEXT menu), does it "fix" it? Its clearly something to do with k...
