Working on a ccGen2 project and I want to pass letters and other keyboard commands to a PC via a USB IR receiver. There is no full keyboard functionality in the default database of drivers.

No sweat, I will just capture and program from an ancient IR keyboard I have (Ms Remote Keyboard for Windows XP MCE v1.0 Model#1044).  The keyboard works fine and I can pass all commands through the receiver to the PC (win7) from the keyboard, and when I capture with the PIR-1, in Generator, everything looks fine until I try to test it.

None of the commands beyond standard MCE remote commands (mute, play, pause...etc) will work (through the PIR-1 or CP-1 base unit).  I am using the PIR-1 for testing and the keyboard specific keys (a,b,c,d,alt,windows...etc) are simply not working.

Any ideas on capturing, or perhaps does someone already have a driver profile they care to share (.csd driver file)?  Is so, that would be AWESOME!  I have searched all over.
