altramarine 21 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Hi guys, I am trying to bind keys to my Harmony Smart Control Remote using this Kodi keyboard Control List. So here are my questions: 1. Which keys do you find absolutely essential for XBMC? 2. Which buttons on the (Harmony)remote do you have these essential keys mapped to? 3. Will this apply to all Themes? I do not use Live TV so thus far, I see these to be essential: I: Info L: Next Subtitle T: Toggle Subtitle On / Off W: mark as Watched / Unwatched Thanks!
T800 9 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 1. Your list plus- C: Context Menu A: Audio Delay Control Tab: Playing Now ': Small Step Back (7 Seconds) 2. I don't have a Smart Control Remote but I do use the colored buttons for anything that is missing on the remote that I want quick access to like subtitle etc. I would use 'Guide' for Context Menu. 3. I have found so far that all buttons mapped work on all skins in XBMC, I don't know about XBMB3C.
xnappo 1608 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Do *not* use the 'w' key with MediaBrowser. This only interfaces with the local XBMC database and will mess up server synchronization. You must use the context menu 'mark watched' to send the status to the server. xnappo 1

I will be trying the 1, Tab and ' ... thanks for that!

Sometimes the audio can be out by a few milliseconds or even a second and it's awful to watch. Audio Delay Control can delay or advance the sound in relation to the video so you can sync it up on a dodgy file. Only happens to me every couple of months but when it does it'a godsend.

xnappo 1608 Posted November 7, 2014 Posted November 7, 2014 Sounds like a great thing for a user to start 1
