Many thanks. I will try this

I suppose i dont have to use a Rv anymore, right?
Just a 10Ko resistor for the R2...

Yep, because you are using regulated 5 volt as the input no need for Rv

Can I ask a noob question?

How exactly do you get the 5v from the K8055??

I have to admit that I have no clue on electronics...

Actually i think the 5V it comes out of the usb...
that is why the current is limited to the usb specs.

So 5v from the positive of the usb, to A1 ? Sorry about that, but as I said I haven't got a clue on electronics, only how to solder things :-)

you dont need to get the 5V from the usb to A1. it is already done by using "internal voltage" jumpers SK2-SK3

Everything works perfect, i have managed to set all the buttons for my Sony RX controller in the RRK8055.INI.
What i will like to ask you is how i can make that k8055 to be initalized once the RR start (now works only in relays.skin) , and the controlls of the Sony RX to work in main menu, audio player, and video player as well? basicaly, how can i make that this analog menu allways to work , without interfeering of course with the RR buttons and functions. These should allways work by touchscreen.

many thanks for your help.

Have the X,RRK8055 in your first screen (probably menu.skin). This screen will load and initialize the plugin. Use the k8055_menu indicator in every screen you want to control with your sony controls. This indicator does not have to be on a visible place.
