Im have a Sound Blaster Audigy 4 with remote. The remote is a Creative RM-1500. Within the Creative directory there is a directory housing '.key' files. These files, and specifically Default.key convert the key presses of the remote controll to decimal microsoft 'Virtual-Key Codes'.

My problem is that when I look in the key history of a script it dosn't show the right key. I know it is the correct key because it does what it's supposed to do.

Here is an excerpt from the Default.key file

[KeyEvent6951]
KeyName=Down
Notification=-1
KeyEventRemap=40

The KeyEventRemap is decimal microsoft 'Virtual-Key Codes'
See: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/defau ... yCodes.asp for the different codes.

This is what the key hist shows.

28 050 d 2.13 Num 2
28 050 u 0.14 Num 2

It is interesting to note that while it says Im pressing Num 2, the cursor moves down one space. (Like its supposed to)

What is also strange is that Num 2 is supposed to be decimal 50, and yet it displayes 50 in the hexadecimal slot. Especially since 28 is the hex conversion of the decimal number 40 (the original decimal number).

Would sombody explain to a poor noob what my system is doing.

You seem to be mixing virtual and scan codes, and hexadecimal and decimal notation. Also, both columns, VK and SC, are displayed with hexadecimal notation. Consider this:

(I believe the 9th bit position indicates an extended key)

VK_DOWN (DOWN ARROW key)
virtual code = 0x28 (40)
scan code = 0x150

VK_NUMPAD2 (Numeric keypad 2 key)
virtual code = 0x62 (98)
scan code = 0x50 (80)
