X-NEWA Remote Control Request

[nitram]

I am using an Inteset MCE real RC6 remote control with my NUC/OpenElec kit which works really well. Compared with using a keyboard, I missed the ability to skip forward and backward by a day in the TV listings, and since the SkipNext and SkipPrevious buttons are not being used I added a quick hack to emulate.py at the end of the if..else key and button tests in OnAction:
elif buttonID == 223:
[INDENT]url = keyBase + str(39|0x20000)[/INDENT]
elif buttonID == 221:
[INDENT]url = keyBase + str(37|0x20000)[/INDENT]
which works nicely. I realise it should be using some proper defines for the button codes but am not sure where to find them.

Could something like this be added to X-NEWA?

I just checked and the skip function keys were working here

You are absolutely right it works fine. I had completely forgotten that I had remapped those keys.
