Does anyone know how to get the buttons on a Harmony Smart Control mapped for Kodi on Ubuntu? Specifically IR, not using Bluetooth.

I recently reformatted my Kodi box and I can't seem to find the instructions that I used before.

I've added the following two devices in MyHarmony:
- Windows Media Center SE
- MCE Keyboard

I'm able to turn my Kodi box on and off, and use the arrows to move around the UI but the rest of the buttons don't seem to be mapped properly. Hopefully someone else remembers how to do this.

Just install the Keymap Editor addon and do it that way unless you really want to fart around doing it manually. Just be careful when rebinding stuff like the "OK" button or you can lock yourself out and have to ssh in to fix it.

If pushing a button doesn't send anything at all you'll have to use a different keymap with the Harmony but I think the ones you chose are fine. I'm using a flirc/Shield combo now instead so just going on memory here.

I use PlexKodiConnect, no issues. A bit fiddly to get setup at first but its been solid since.

Has anyone screwed around with retroplayer yet? I think it's built in now.
