[PROBLEM] How to map unknown keys?

[mk01]

look at

/usr/local/share/xbmc/system/keymaps/

in your installation.

at the source code level the system level resolving is handled in xbmc/input/linux/LinuxInputDevices.cpp. if you check table keyMap, on the left is code returned from OS which is resolved into XBMC internal key code on the right. of course the key codes on left are OS specific but in this case linux provides the mapping in (/usr/)include/linux/input.h.

looking into it 139 is KEY_MENU and indeed it is not defined in xbmc's xbmc/input/linux/LinuxInputDevices.cpp. if you would decide to try patching the code and recompile, then you would add into keyMap table this line:

Code:

{ KEY_MENU             , XBMCK_c           },

or even directly with number

Code:

{ 139             , XBMCK_c           },

(in XBMC key"C" is key for display context menu.)
