Editing remote control buttons - Android Stick & Console Computers General

Hi,
I have a OTT M8S (rooted) with the old style rounded remote. It's not the best so would like to use a remote control from a box I had a while back as it's more responsive.
Unfortunately though some of the buttons don't do as labelled so was wondering if I can adjust a cfg file of some kind?
Thanks.

XBMC Remote that scales!

WickedStyx has modifed the official XBMC remote app for the Viewsonic Tab so that it scales to the full screen. The GTab is a smaller screen than the SGT, but the app still now seems to scale to the full screen and looks much better!
Go grab it from his thread over at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=878016!
Very nice indeed. Controlling your xbmc from your Tab or phone is quite a neat party piece. However, as everyday solution, a standard IR remote with real buttons is far superior. 90% of the time I use the remote, I don't look at it, but rather find the correct button by touch.

The media PC in the lounge has an IR interface and is mapped to a Logitech harmony remote so I can use that to control XBMC. The PC in my room however doesn't have any IR (trying to get 3rd party IR interface working in OS X = hopeless). So I use XBMC remote on my tab or my Nexus-One instead.

are there any other apps like DroidMote ?

The only solution so far I got is to switch from original ROM to Christian Troy's CM10 including Zulu99's DroidMote patches.
I am still not allowed to post links, so if you're interested, PM me.
Don't know how similar but I love Splashtop 2
I do not know what "DroidMote" is, but I use Unified Remote as my Android remote control. I watch a lot of stuff on my computer, hooked up to my TV, and it lets me use my Android keyboard as my computer keyboard, and the touch screen like a laptop's touch pad. It's a little jittery due to latency, I think, but it gets the job done. From the couch, I can open VLC's Media > Open and browse my local (PC's) file system and play music or video. The free app has some limitations but is usable enough. If you know VLC's keyboard controls, the basic input remote works well. Only, I use SwiftKey Flow, and sometimes it doesn't send key presses to the system (it wants to build a word). I have a Tasker profile to open the keyboard selector when Unified Remote opens, but it's annoying, so I have it disabled presently.

Unified Remote has nothing to do with DroidMote. (I use both.)

Control iPod from Android device

Just wondering if it's possible, via any apps or remote control, to control my iPod touch through my android device. Mainly i just want to change music, so I'm pretty much looking for a remote control application.
Thanks.

[Q] Remote control app (android->android) with remote screen view.

Hi,
I'm looking for remote control app to control one android device by another android (HTC One -> Galaxy S). I would like to use GalaxyS as internet radio source (XiiaLive) for my mini-stereo, and use HTC One as remote control. I found several remote control apps (for example AIO Remote), however, none shows remote screen, thus it's difficult to control XiiaLive comfortable. So the question is: have you found any android->android remote control which shows remote screen and allows to control it? Or maybe there is an internet radio app with separated remote control app? or remote control android from Ipad (with remote screen view).
Regards,
Bogdan

MX Player only supports the keyboard shortcuts at the moment. Each TV manufacturer has a different set of keys on remote for different kind of functionalities, and it makes it harder for us to support everything through the remote.
