Title: Recommendation for a airmouse for jrMC?
Post by: flac.rules on November 15, 2020, 12:00:00 pm

I use jrMC on a HTPC, and my logitech mx air is dying, does anybody have a recommendation for a well functioning airmouse, also nice if it has some navigation keys?

I bought this one

Few things are different from MCE remotes:
- Since it is not an IR Remote, the media center command mapping does not work
- 'Home' button calls Browser home. This has no function in MC
- 'Back' button sends 'Esc' not 'Backspace'. Pressing it once opens the 'Close ?' window. Pressing again does not leave the dialog. Instead the theater view closes.

The mouse functionality is not great. I only use the for theater view. In rare situations e.g search, also the keyboard on the back is helpful.
