I have attached a remote.xml, it changes 3,6 and 9 buttons to control the volume when watching fullscreen video only.
Save it in
(XBMC install dir)\portable_data\userdata\keymaps\remote.xml

Sure. The below image shows how I start XBMC, if you need more help I'll describe it better later. The
PVR Menu(so yours would be different) is the event that the button I want to start XBMC with sends.

If your remote/receiver supports long presses you can use
EventGhost\Jump if long press action, to start when a button is held down.

Sure, the "Show XBMC" just brings the XBMC window to the front if minimized.

Did you look at the <FullscreenVideo> section? Normally select is set to <select>AspectRatio</select>.
I just checked the remote.xml file he provided and that is what it is set to do. And it works just fine for me. Change to the default confluence skin and check what happens.

Not sure why that file would make select not work out side of fullscreen video. It works fine for me. Anyhow, it sounds like you are squared away so it doesn't really matter.
im wondering how to set up a macro to switch between xbmc like i hold 0 1.5sec and it jumps to a diff ip i hold 1.5sec again and it jumps back to the other
Can you explain this again? You want a macro to switch between screens within XBMC or between XBMC and another app? I'm not sure what an "ip" is.

Good to hear. The remote.xml was from my XBMC Dharma install, so might be some differences to 9.11.
now im wondering how to set up a macro to switch between xbmc like i hold 0 1.5sec and it jumps to a diff ip i hold 1.5sec again and it jumps back to the other
So you want to control two different XBMCs?
Then you need two XBMCRepeat plugins in the autostart folder, configured to use the right IP numbers.
Then you need to make a macro to enable one XBMCRepeat macro tree and disable the second XBMCRepeat macro tree, and vice versa. Using
Exclusive enable a folder/macro or
Enable/Disable an item.
Hope this helps, if not reply again.
