newbie asks about logitech mx2 master

[kysioo]

Hi everybody!

XMBC 2.21 beta 51:
Win10Pro (x64) Build 19045.6575 (22H2):
logitech mx2 master:
lenovo thinkpad laptop, intel core9gen, 32g:
i just starded using XMBC…!:
language in windows is polish:

This is my first post here. I'm trying to determine whether i can solve my recent problems with crappy logitech sofyware(options+) by using XMBC.
For a few years now i've been succesfully using theese logitech mx2 mice (i have a few in several pc's) good combination of precision and durability made me happy user in general. However crappy updates of logitech made it unussable (key bindigs became impossible, app profiles began to dissapear etc.) I discovered that XMBC might be sollution to my troubles once and for all.

XMBC doesn't recognize two buttons of my mouse - one under the thumb - that in default is used to switch between windows and second one behind the main wheel that is normaly used two switch between mousewheel operation modes - free speen or rattle. On logitech soft i was able tho bind them tho something else. Is it possible here?

Kind Regards
Chris

No, unfortunately those buttons are only configurable in the Logitech software.

However, you can run both together, so it may still give you a way out (I have many Logitech mice, none that have a configurable wheel speed button - they are all mechanical for me!) but I don't use the Logitech software other that where required for the extra buttons, and sometimes to make the existing 5 buttons perform the "windows default" so XMBC can see/intercept them (the reason for only 5 buttons is covered in the F.A.Q.).
