 I found some old HID IR Remote - https://www.delock.com/produkte/S_62442/merkmale.html and combined the usb dongle with a learnable universal control.

It was straight forward to use left, right, up, down, enter, back and escape which makes most of the kodi functions accessable, but I missed access to context menues - things you access hitting "i" and "o" on keyboard.

On the other hand, the functions keys which are discreatly mapped to IR-Codes on the delock remote.

The solution is a custom key map file that maps function keys to kodi functions - https://kodi.wiki/view/List_of_keynames 

 An example is https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/system/keymaps/keyboard.xml

To find out what remote key codes which keyboard key the cli tool "evtests" was great help.

Result is ~/.kodi/userdata/keymaps/keymaps.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<F2>Info</F2>
<F3>ContextMenu</F3>
<F4>PlayerProcessInfo</F4>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>

Kodi keeps crashing when it is started without connected displays. Sometimes I want to startup my kodi setup for some other reasen and start using kodi later.... then kodi was already closed with some crash log file... :( This script works arround by waiting to start kodi until some hdmi port is connected (modify the grep query to adapt to some other port name). #!/bin/bash # Some programs have issues when run without connected display. E.g. Kodi likes to crash when started without any display connected on my system. # This script starts after some hdmi port is connected. # Depends on xrandr.

ffmpeg wrapper for .net and java

Ok. I built a custom ffmpeg wrapper but it was just a dirty hack. it was not encapsulated clean.... it worked but it was just tooo ugly to develop some extension... wrapping looked something like this: THIS DOES NOT WORK it is refactored to death:    class MencoderSharp     {         public static bool mencoder(System.Uri infovdrpath, string ratio, System.Uri destinationpath, BackgroundWorker worker, bool deleteConverted,string audioparameter, string videoparamter, bool testRun, DoWorkEventArgs e)         {             int returncode = 0;             foreach (string sourcepath in Directory.GetFiles(infovdrpath.ToString().Substring(0, infovdrpath.ToString().Length - 9), "0*.vdr"))             {                 Process p = new Process();                 //p.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = @"C:\whatever";                 p.StartInfo.FileName = @"mencoder.exe";                 // http://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/system.diagnostics.processstar...
