Unfortunately, some keymaps are no longer implemented by Kodi or Coreelec. Let’s stick with just one remote control key. For me it is the power button.
The remote control sends the code “0x40404d” and this should be converted into KEY_S, which CE unfortunately does not do. Instead, CE does nothing.
I therefore suspect that KEY_S (XBMCK_s) has been replaced by something else. Who among the coders here can answer this for me…?
Here it would have been helpful to tell me where exactly… But I had to work my way through…
But I found nothing. Except in THIS file, which I also only found within a source code.
OK, that’s the search… At least I didn’t find anything in the library section.
Maybe you can help me in another way. I would be interested to know if you could exchange a FB button at your place…
Instead of KEY_POWER (system power) or KEY_ENTER (OK button), please set
KEY_S and see if the shutdown menu is called up when you press it. Really, I get a lot further with this than searching for something that worked without further ado before… It’s not a thinking error or anything… No, it just doesn’t work at the moment…
I can confirm that KEY_S (s) brings up the Kodi Shutdown Menu with my MX3 Air Mouse and with my USB Keyboard on 4 different OTT boxes, thus ruling out any internal issues with Kodi or CoreELEC in regards to key mapping.
I’ve been trying things out again and unfortunately I can’t get any further.
If I change the KEY_S in the keymaps file to KEY_POWER (and re-read it), Kodi shuts down. Which is normal for KEY_POWER.
But why does KEY_S not work (for me)?
OK, it works for you @betatester, you say.
Unfortunately not for me. And that’s really annoying.
