Media-Tech MT1422 button codes (for Kodi)

Media-Tech MT1422

This is a list of button codes (key codes) on the Media-Tech MT1422 remote and air mouse (similar to MX3 remote). Those codes can be used to customize the remote by creating a custom keymap.

The buttons codes are intended for use with Kodi media center. The list was created by inspecting the debug log of Kodi 18.5 (tail -f ~/.kodi/temp/kodi.log | grep HandleKey).

Mapping definitions

Button name and button code can be used interchangeably to define a mapping:

      <button_name>action</button_name>     <!-- Both of these lines  -->
      <key id="button_code">action</key>    <!-- have the same effect -->

for example:

      <return>select</return>          <!-- Both of these lines  -->
      <key id="0xf00d">select</key>    <!-- have the same effect -->

Each button can have different action when long-pressed:

      <button_name mod="longpress">action</button_name>

See Keymap page on Kodi's Wiki for more info about keymaps. Also see example configuration below.
