I have a Apple Mac Mini with Leopard 10.5.6 and XBMC (the latest one think it is 8.10).

I have checked to use Apple Remote and Always,
but if I want to start XBMC when pressing menu on the remote it still opens Front Row.

If I install Plex and do the same it starts Plex then.

I wonder if anoyone could help me with this one.

regards,
/D

Without causing a war... why not just use Plex then?

Can't be many, if any, reasons that you need to use XBMC?

Not going to touch that with a ten-foot pole less I send Elan into another rant and rage :)
