[VU+ Uno4KSE] Issue using usb keyboard

[diceman01]

Hi everyone I wanted to know does anyone have a usb keyboard working properly on their boxes? I plugged an old Dell keyboard I had lying around and the up and down buttons work but I can't type any characters. Do I need to change a setting or is my keyboard not compatible for some reason? I thought being a standard type of input device it would work.

You can only use keys that are mapped in the keymap for any particular screen.

Ok thanks for reply so using a keyboard is pretty much useless?

Just the same as the remote, certains button work in certain screens.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Most Vix screen entries requiring alphanumeric characters will provide a virtual (on-screen) keyboard by pressing the TEXT button on your remote. I don't use the m3uiptv plugin myself but as it's part of the Vix package I'm sure it supports this method of entry.

EDIT - as I was reading the new posts from the bottom of the list upwards I came across confirmation that m3uiptv can do exactly as I suggested - https://www.world-of-satellite.com/...t-M3UIPTV-quot&p=542537&viewfull=1#post542537
