Hi,

Sometimes I come across an problem simulated letters of english language.
For exzample: emulation sequence 1?2?3? 4A5B6C7D
Instead of "?" - any Russian letters
It's displayed like this: 1?2?3? 4567
Keeping Russian letters and numbers, but ignoring the English ones.

The problem is observed only in third-party applications, such as the browser. While, in the windows inside the application itself, all the text is simulated entirely.

Ive heard similar reports before - with people having trouble simulating keys for other languages (keyboard layouts). XMBC sends keys using scan codes, which I believe requires the keyboard to be set up correctly for the language you are sending (so if you enter the keys with a Russian keyboard, then switch to English, XMCB will send the English keys on those scan codes and not the Russian ones.

As I don't have any non-English (UK) keyboards its been really difficult for me to diagnose/fix (and I'm not entirely sure its even possible to fix using the SendInput API....

What is the setting "Load US English keyboard if no equivalent is available" in advanced settings set to - try switching it off (if it is on - I don't expect turning it on will help but maybe worth a try).

When you say it works in the windows inside the application itself - you mean in XMBC windows? But when sending to other windows (non-XMBC) it does not work - thats odd. What language is your system keyboard set to when this problem occurs (do you have multiple keyboard languages installed)?
