When I was still fiddling with MediaPortal I was working on a PDA based context sensitive remote using OmniRemote (http://www.pacificneotek.com/) on an old Handspring Prism color PDA.
Now that I've given up on MP I'm thinking about doing this project for GBPVR instead. I've looked through the documentation including the Keyboard reference but I think I need more that that. Is there any documentation available on the actual keyboard codes that are used by GB for each menu item (Live TV, TV Guide, Weather, Recordings, etc)?
My idea is to program the PDA remote keys using various remote controls I have around the house and then use USBUIRT with Girder to receive the IR codes and deliver keyboard commands to GB.
Before anyone says anything I know I could just buy a MCE remote but this is for fun anyway :-)
