Is it buggy or does it replicate/resolve the bugs in the native G Box Q remote. ie double clicks, freezes?

It isn't 100% bug free but after using it for some time I find it very functional. On keyboard entry it occasionally goes into repeat mode and enters the last symbol multiple times. However when you acquire a little dexterity with practice these shortcomings can be overcome and it is now my keyboard of choice.

I like this remote, it's very functional the only thing is that when using the keypad on the back, it's easy to press a button on the front which can be annoying sometimes especially because of the mouse. I've never used the Q remote.

I had this problem until I updated the firmware on the remote about two months ago, around July 2015. It changed all the graphics on the remote as well. Much more responsive than it used to be.

No lag on my shield with emulation of nes - Psx. Lag on remote play causes some sound to stutter or cut out buy that could be my PC or network.

I haven't had such a problem, but I have experienced sluggish or incorrect response to the button control which was solved with the remote use. If your buttons work & you have after purchase warrantee, I would suggest using the warrantee to repair. If buttons work but not the remote then question the remote performance. Sorry I'm not more help. I have, however, purchased 4 units for myself and others and had issues twice that had to be resolved thru warantee use. Good Luck!

No issues here, been using for 7 months now. However, I noticed one day my HD was horrible quality, and it started freezing and jitters. I tried to troubleshoot it all around on the TV settings and no luck, then I did a reset on the HD cable box and it was fixed!

No, I haven't had that problem, just the issue of every time the mouse doesn't move for a few minutes, or after turning the machine on, it's frozen and I have to click a bunch to wake it up so I can see and move it around. I'm thinking this is not a very high-quality mouse, though, after hearing your problems in addition. Hmm. Sorry I can't be of more help.

I've never had a problem. The remote has a lot more functionality than the multifunction button on the machine. I love mine. Jim

Yes, I just tested the FREEZE button while watching a tv show and yes, it freezes and it works. Works great! This remote is awesome!

Hot and miss. The instructions say it can. In game it works most of the time, but now and then it throws a finger at me. Tried window mode with CS Go and it worked for about an hour, then acted like it does in full screen mode. It wouldn't have been a deal breaker because it worked better then the previous keyboard, but the in-game keyboard glitches were enough for me to send it back.

Is there a specific function you need help with? I found using the keyboard to be the hardest thing to figure out. Basically, it works like an old fashioned cell-phone in that hit a button repeatedly to scroll through the letters. Our remote is very slow to respond so this can be a frustrating process.

I have this model and the salesperson told me there was not gonna be any significant changes, I don't know if this is true. I do use some of the apps but the remote is sort of a pain to use. Hopefully with next model they Will come back with the qwerty keyboard remote. I hope this helps.

I'm using this keyboard with an IOgear GCS634U 4-port KVM. I'm not a gamer, so I can't speak to any of those issues. I'm also using the SetPoint software because I have a Logitech wireless mouse as well. I have two laptops and one desktop on the KVM and I don't see any issues. The backlighting works fine as well as the special purpose keys (volume, web keys, etc.).

This has never happened to me. I have had the remote for over 6 months. I believe that you need to upgrade the firmware on the Minix X7 box in order to fix this. Not an easy task, but worth it for the extra features.

Hello, good day!... The Software application freezes when I access remotely, why ?.. Can you help me ?

I bought mine to work with SketchUp, where it performs flawlessly. With other apps, there are application profiles (in the beta driver for sure, in the latest drivers possibly as well) where you can associate device actions with keystrokes\mouse actions. Tried using it in Corel X5 \ PS and my media player, but results were mixed (lots of time to set up, sometimes laggy performance, inefficiency of keystroke\mouse emulation vs "native" plugin approach). If I had more time I might try figuring it out, but generally, works best with 3D apps.

Yes. I've used it with xbmc with a g box midnight and it is my primary remote with a chromebox xbmc device for a few months now. I've only had problems with right click actions on a few occasions. Also be mindful that it transmits wireless g so it could overlap other device signals if they are on the same wireless g channel. You may also want to look into Flirc device. It allows you to program any IR remote to control xbmc. You could then program your tv remote for basic xbmc functions and have the rii for items that may require a keyboard. [follow up]: Joe mentioned distance. My distance from the g-box is 8 feet and for the asus chromebox / xbmc is about 9 feet. I have controlled xbmc from 17 feet away. Again your results may vary based on other wireless g devices and rii battery charge. If you think it is on the same wireless g channel as another device then press Fn + F1 keys for 10 seconds to switch to another wireless g channel. Also forgot to mention that the right click context menu can be done by pressing the C key instead of the right click below the track pad.

Win 7 X64 is what I use it on, its not perfect though. All of the buttons on your remote will not work regardless what operating system you use.
