Boxee remote for Salling Clicker

March8

Well I’m a Boxee alpha tester so i have Boxee on Windows and what i really wanted was a remote control.

Since i love and use Salling Clicker, naturally i decided to write a script so i can enjoy Boxee heaven :P

I used Boxee on Florian’s MacBook with his iRemote so i wanted something exactly like that. Mine is better – it’s not IR (but bluetooth and wifi) :D

This is a very simple script that emulates the basic navigation keys in Boxee (cursor keys, enter key, escape key and backspace key).

My primary phone is the brilliant Nokia E71 so naturally this is what i used to develop it. I dont know if it will work out of the box on other phones, but in theory anything with a joypad or center pad thingy should be compatible. You can always adjust the script to your liking. I’ll probably end up turning one of my pda’s or my old phones into a full time remote. I’ll update the script should need be in the future.

Below is a link to the file. Just unpack it into your “My Documents\My Clicker Scripts” directory.
