You should advise about your environment, such as hardware, from where/screen etc.

What I did:
- Mapped "Info" button to "Ctrl-Alt-2" in Harmony
- Used

Code: Select all

<two mod="ctrl,alt">Info</two>
in the MrMC keyboard mapping

Hi Koying, thanks for the reply.
Sorry i don't fully understand. I've created a keyboard.xml but how do i assign the "info" button on harmony as it only allows me the option to assign commands 'play f1 f2 volumeup etc etc.

Sorry if im missing the point

Disregard guys I've cracked it. My Harmony remote has F1-F12 commands so within MrMc I've mapped certain controls to keyboard keys F1 etc etc and assigned certain Harmony remote buttons to these.
A big Thank you though guys for looking into this.
