Netflix Search On Screen Keyboard w/ Remote

#1

I'm looking to solve an issue related to bringing up the on screen keyboard while trying to perform a Search in the Netflix add in of my Windows 7 x64 Media Center.

So far, I've installed the MceNflx workaround to correct the general Netflix search issue:

I verified that this fixes the Search capability.

However, in order for me to use this Search function with my remote control, I'm looking to be able to bring up the on screen keyboard (osk) by hitting the "ok" button on my remote (equivalent on "enter" on the keyboard). I can double-click in the Netflix search text-box which brings up the osk, but that won't help me any...

I've updated the registry per the following instruction to supposedly enable this capability:

With this registry update, the osk now comes up when hit "ok" for Searching my Music and Movie libraries, but the osk still does not come up for Netflix search.

Any ideas/suggestions? Am I missing something?

Hmmm, I don't get it. I have never had to do a registry edit and mine has always worked. My only guess is you are not using an official RC6 Microsoft certified remote/receiver.
