[ROM] OpenELEC for Amlogic-based TV boxes (M8, MXQ, TV110, MX2/G18)

Well this is the original that I got from /etc/

# ZAP-A10 NEC remotefactory_code    = 0xfe010001work_mode       = 0
repeat_enable   = 1
release_delay   = 121
debug_enable    = 1
reg_control     = 0xfbe40




key_begin
        0x4e 2          ;NUM_1
        0x0d 3          ;NUM_2
        0x0c 4          ;NUM_3
        0x4a 5          ;NUM_4
        0x09 6          ;NUM_5
        0x08 7          ;NUM_6
        0x46 8          ;NUM_7
        0x05 9          ;NUM_8
        0x04 10         ;NUM_9
        0x01 11         ;NUM_0
        0x42 111        ;DEL
        0x51 105        ;LEFT
        0x16 103        ;UP
        0x50 106        ;RIGHT
        0x1a 108        ;DOWN
        0x13 28         ;OK
        0x10 46         ;MENU
        0x41 66         ;MUTE
        0x11 78         ;VOL+
        0x4c 74         ;VOL-
        0x18 1          ;HOME
        0x19 14         ;EXIT
        0x40 116        ;POWER
key_end

If I want to swap VOL- with HOME and VOL+ with MENU, how do I need to modify it. But even without modifying it and copying it as is in /storage/.config/ and rebooting, none of the keys work at all.

It doesn't work after a reboot because the file was modified. It is not exact copy of the /etc/remote.conf. It should look as:

# ZAP-A10 NEC remote
factory_code    = 0xfe010001
work_mode       = 0
repeat_enable   = 1
release_delay   = 121
debug_enable    = 1
reg_control     = 0xfbe40


key_begin
        0x4e 2          ;NUM_1
        0x0d 3          ;NUM_2
        0x0c 4          ;NUM_3
        0x4a 5          ;NUM_4
        0x09 6          ;NUM_5
        0x08 7          ;NUM_6
        0x46 8          ;NUM_7
        0x05 9          ;NUM_8
        0x04 10         ;NUM_9
        0x01 11         ;NUM_0
        0x42 111        ;DEL
        0x51 105        ;LEFT
        0x16 103        ;UP
        0x50 106        ;RIGHT
        0x1a 108        ;DOWN
        0x13 28         ;OK
        0x10 46         ;MENU
        0x41 66         ;MUTE
        0x11 78         ;VOL+
        0x4c 74         ;VOL-
        0x18 1          ;HOME
        0x19 14         ;EXIT
        0x40 116        ;POWER
key_end

Do you see the difference at beginning with yours?

Hmm. So the factory_code remained in the comment of the first line? Well i'm not at home at the moment so I can't be sure if it was a wrong copy paste in my post or indeed this is how I created the new remote.conf in /storage/.config.

If indeed it's a problem with the beginning of the file, what should I change in the following to swap MENU with VOL+ ?

Do any of you guys get a big pink line across the screen when you do a 30 second forward skip? It doesn't happen all the time. Maybe every 3 to 5 skips it does it.

I get this as well

Could anyone check /dev/system capacity through "Storage information" in XBMC, after fresh installation, and write values here?

I don't have a remote.conf for M8N. I'll try to add the support for M8N in the coming days.

Each ROM just use the same hardware decoding provided by the S802 SoC and the kernel, so I don't know how do you see any difference.

[baal77]

It's not you ... But enough far of your screen, it's not so bad.
It's the same as with Finless or ROMstock in fact, and near my Apple TV 2 quality also.

I had my nose on the screen for these tests, so I was totally obsessed by the artefacts of compression, but once my ass in my coach ... it was the same than ATV2.

This evening I'll try to correctly configure my remote.conf and it will be OK for me.

Totally agree with you ... it's just our (bad) impression.
I've perfomed the test with two CSM8 yesterday, each flashed with your ROM, Finless 2.0 and StockROM ... and it was strictly the same quality for each.
