   1 # arduino-kodi-ir-keyboard / BootKeyboard branch
   2 Kodi optimized infrared USB keyboard for an Asus Chromebox running openELEC.
   3
   4 IR device: Logitech Harmony 880 with remote profile: 'Plex Player'
   5
   6 Testing with:
   7 - SparkFun Pro Micro, ATmega32u4 (5V, 16MHz)
   8 - MattairTech MT-DB-U4 (ATmega 32U4), 16MHZ 5V, CDC_HID
   9
  10 Arduino IDE 1.6.7
  11 HID Project 2.4.3
  12 IRRemote 2.0.1
  13
  14 Initial proof of concept with HID-Project instead of standard Keyboard library:
  15 - Kodi control works pretty well already :-)
  16 - key repeat works
  17 - boot protocol mode works (tested on a MacMini)
  18
  19 ## Issues:
  20 - Stability issues: program hangs within 0..60 minutes
  21    (Watch dog reset didn't work either, according to Google this is most likely a bootloader bug)
  22
  23 ## TODO:
  24 - Stable operation: continue testing with an Arduino Leonardo
  25 - Power off / sleep / wakeup
  26 - CTRL+D / CTRL+W key combinations for boot selection
  27 - Chromebox hardware modification to control power toggle switch with Arduino
